Thanksgiving

 

Lots of lists

Shopping too

Cooking, cleaning

It’s what we do

But pause a moment

Take your seat

And give thanks to God

Before you eat

Clouds

 

Puffy white

Or

Ominous black

Scary face

Or

Funny yak

Amuse

Inspire

Change

in a flash

Just like

Life

Takes off in a dash

 

Free

Who can describe it

Try if you will

Don’t take if for granted

It’s truly a thrill

Live

Love

It’s yours for the taking

It’s a gift

And a right

Yet more, no mistaking

Breathe it in

Feel the sun

Dare to dream

Learn to run

Gravity

Life pulls

Can bring you down

Test your courage

Vex and confound

Go against it

Against the grain

Embrace your vision

Break the chain

Spooky

 

It’s a bump in the night

A terrible fright

Grab for the light

What a sight

Prepare to fight

That bump in the night
