Enjoy the Thanksgiving Poem!

Family gather ‘round the table. Set with turkey, yams and dressing. Holding hands and bowing heads. Thanking God for every blessing.

Platters steaming, bowls are brimming. Dishes circle like a wreath. Though the tabletop is tempting, I’m drawn to something underneath.

At my feet I feel a tapping. A paw that tells me someone’s there. Perhaps they hope for a morsel. But instead, I say a prayer.

Thank you, God, for furry paws. That sweetly nudge and jump and run. Thank you for the tail that wags. Unceasingly, never done.

For ears that hear me drawing near. For the nose so cold and wet. The fur so soft (unless it rains). That’s warm and comforting to my pet.

For the eyes that tell me how they feel. And the gaze I never tire of. The tongue that kisses sloppily. The faithful heart so full of love.

Thanksgiving is a time of year. Acknowledgments abound. Appreciation multiplies, For loved ones all around.

So, I’m thankful for friends and family. And each gift God shall enable. And I’m thankful for my loyal pet. Who waits underneath the table.

We wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
