Giving thanks everyday : Thanksgiving Poetry

written by Poet : cavirzanee


Within the chill of mornings light. Beneath the frost covered breeze. People awake from a cold night. To see the fall freeze.

To a summer of little bounty. What will the children eat. can you hear the prayers of a young mother on the street. Scrubbing the floor's of the wealthy's home.Who know's what's in store. When you're all alone.

But still you are thankful for tonight your children were fed. Silently you pray, With  morning light, you will get ahead.  As all you can do is pray. Giving thanks, the Lord saw you thru another day.

Funny how the one who you would expect to complain. Have a smile on their face and cast no blame. Warmed with a thankful heart. With a faith that can't be shaken apart. Giving thanks everyday for what they have. Not what has been taken away.
