Thanksgiving - September 24, 2000
As the fall weather cools,
the land turns a golden hue
that casts the world
and our eyes to
the coming of winter months.
A gathering of friendly faces
by the hearth
leads to hours
of happy conversation
and mirth.
Cranberries, sweet sauce
and the fragrant scent
of tradition cast
our memories back.
We give thanks
for the bountiful spread
that lay before us --
and keep in our thoughts
the lives of those
less fortunate.
