THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving is not just a day
when we eat a meal, after we say
some hollow words of gratitude;
Thanksgiving is an attitude.

The marvelous words that we say
are really not the way we pray.
Wonders of life are really brought,
not by the word, but by the thought.

Loving thoughts are never misconstrued;
Thanksgiving is an attitude.
