“Thanksgiving Is—” Friend, Nov. 1988, 47
Thanksgiving Is—
T ime to think and time to pray.
H appiness with friends each day.
A pples ripe and rosy red.
N ighttime in my cozy bed.
K ittens purring soft and low.
S ilver moon and stars that glow.
G ardens, flowers, painted white.
I ce and snow and frosty night.
V ees that form when geese fly high
I n the clear blue autumn sky.
N eighbors’ visits, joy, and sharing.
G od, whose love is warm and caring.
