Thanksgiving 11/26/2015

leaves a golden shade

cold takes over night and day

bundled for travel 

by car plan and train

heading for a festive day

family and friends

smells all familiar

turkey, dressing, gravy too

a roll and butter

gather together

blessings and thanks for all life

and pray for the world

that all have a time

gather friends and family

and all can give thanks

Where I am now, we all have a community dinner at the church. Members take in dishes and others contribute. Food will be taken to shut ins homes etc. I like the family type holiday but there are those with no family ..Nice write Will. Valentine

Thank you young lady and if I felt the need I would seek out a dinner like that. It's just another day to me and my love as is Christmas. Reaching out to those that find loneliness and stress during the holidays is one of the best and most rewarding things you can do.

A nice day described. Thanksgiving should be a day for the family. Thank you Willard for sharing the excellent poetry.
