Hungry For Thanksgiving
Karyn Indursky 

Upon thy table lies Thanksgiving feast

not to be eaten until prayers are read

one by one each gives thanks from most to least

and our Father is at the table head.

Around the maple table food is shared

while chatter ignites and eyes glow happy

with sights of generations brought so rare

to be together and we get sappy.

Beloved pictures are taken as gifts

to forever hold these memories in 

our hearts as emotions sometimes shift

telling new stories can't wait to begin.

So long as the sun comes up everyday

we all can give thanks each and every day.
