PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Thanksgiving 2005

This Thanksgiving I'm writing a thank you poem
because I am overfilled with gratitude.
I am thankful for my family,
who's stood through me being
in the hospital and my medicines not working
without failure to encourage me to do well
and know they'll always be there for me.
I am grateful for my boyfriend,
who has helped me through these rocky times
and will be here for me in the future.
I appreciate my pets, who get into mischief,
but always know how to snuggle up
and purr until I feel at peace.
I am thankful for my friends,
who have kept up with my crazy life
this year and will continue to be
on my side throughout the years.
I am thankful for the food provided
to everyone by God.  I appreciate
that there is a God. I appreciate
knowing on this one special day
we're all untied in our special thanks
that shouldn't only be on a holiday,
but on every day.
