Thanksgiving

The turkey's laid out,
A smell is in the air,
one, that every year,
Becomes more and more familiar.

The family is gathered,
Round the table,
So full!
And soon we'll be laughing
And enjoying the feast.

Before that can happen,
Something takes place.
Something much more important
Than the food on your plate.

Around that glad table
You'll glance and you'll sigh.
Thanking the Lord
Up above you're alive.

And maybe a smile you'll share with the rest
Because you know
One day
There will be nothing left.

And so you'll continue
The blessing with care
And make sure others know
The reasons they are there.

They'll smile,
And then
Begin digging right in.
And you'll have one more thing
To be Thankful, again.
:)


Happy Thanksgiving!

Fairy Tale Novels for Teens by Regina Doman: Why Fairy Tales Are Still Interesting...
To the insane man his insanity is quite prosaic, because it is quite true. A man who thinks himself a chicken is to himself as ordinary as a chicken. A man who thinks he is a bit of glass is to himself as dull as a bit of glass.

Please finish reading this wonderul excerpt of GK Chesterton at the blog's address. And check out her wonderful books, they are amazing!
