Thanksgiving ~ Blessed We Are
Blessed we are
For the passion and allurement of love
For the delicate innocence of each new born
For the wonder of each child’s way
For the meaning we live this day
Blessed we are
For the understanding we seek
For the compassion we feel
For each sunrise we behold
For each story told
Blessed we are
For the striving and the path
For the strength to meet opposition
For the knowing within the Word
For the listening beyond all heard
Blessed we are
For the bounty
For the harvest we gather
For the restful reflection
For nature's perfection.
Blessed we are
For the tender touch that comforts
For the embrace that secures
For the determination to be
This moment blessed and free.
A Most Happy Thanksgiving to All
