Coming Home for the Holidays

A Poem by SmittyJas
"

The Big Family Feast Day

"
Looking for the feast of all feast days
Thanks Givings day
Lots of Good family memories
Were created on this day
I am One of seven children
and now that I'm 58
The Family had grown quit
a bit
getting tables set for 
Thanksgivings day
Is quit the task
We had to split the family in half my Brother and his 10 grandchildren meet at his Daughter's house
and the other three local family meet at my sister's house for thanksgivings dinner
most times about 25-35 members of my family Get together for a warm loving family get to gather
Some out of town folks sometimes just can't make it in we pray for them at meal time and bless their families
Everyone brings something to share the host of the house cooks the Turkey stuffing other members bring the wine and bean salads and other Thanksgivings treats
Lots of pies for us to share I always to fool from the Turkey and potatoes Gravy and stuffing to eat a piece of pie must hope for left overs for friday and continue the holiday. But thanks givings day at our family gatherings are a great celebration
Yes Always feels welcome to Come home for the holidays The Big Family Feast Day
That is known as
Thanksgivings Day
