Thanksgivingness

Thanksgivingness

A Poem by kyam
"

Because

"
Let us all be thankful for the eyes we have to see
For not everyone has the same opportunity to be
Let's be thankful for the legs that carry us through the day
For not everyone is fortunate enough to stay made that way

Let us be thankful to our maker for the lives that we still have this night'
Because not everybody with the drugs, and diseases are lucky enough to keep the fight
Let us be thankful for our fellow man
For who knows where he will get his next helping hand

Let us thank out lucky stars in the sky
When our babies our born and they let out that healthy cry
Let us be thankful for the food we eat
For many skip meals and children get beat

Let us pray for everyone to have what they need to live
And pray that others will contribute and not be afraid to give
Let us bow our heads to pray
For the souls not with us today

Excellent, A real statement about being thankful for what we have and remember the less fortunate among us. This is truly a lovely read and I really enjoyed it. "For not everyone is fortunate enough to stay made that way" is my favourite line, it is wonderfully constructed and made me pause to think x
