There comes a time,
In everyone's life,
When the day arrives,
To be very thankfull.
Many days come and go,
But none as so important,
As this day in November,
To remember all and none you can't.
Nor matter who you are,
Or where you've been;
Not even the troubles you've had,
Should deter you from the then.
Forget your traumas,
Of yesterday's list,
And remember all the good,
You didn't miss.
Gather among your family,
And enjoy every one.
Bring unto your thoughts,
A feeling of love happily.
Make merry this time of year,
And be of cheer to all.
Forgive those who hated you,
And stand very tall.
Sit down to a sumptuous meal,
And revel in the closeness.
Pray together for all you have,
And remember to give thanks.
