At Grandma's House
unknown

I like the taste of turkey
Any time throughout the year
But it never
seems to taste as good
As when Thanksgiving's here.

Could be it's all the trimmings
That are cooked with it to eat
But I think
it's eating at Grandma's house
That makes it such a treat!  

Thanksgiving
 Old Rhyme

The year has turned its circle,
The seasons come and go.
The harvest all is gathered in
And chilly north winds blow.
Orchards have shared their treasures,
The fields, their yellow grain,
So open wide the doorway -
Thanksgiving comes again!
 

The Little Girl and the Turkey
 Dorothy Aldis

The little girl said
As she asked for more:
"But what is the Turkey
Thankful for?
~
If the only prayer you said in your whole life was "thank you," that would suffice...   Meister Eckhart


I'm Thankful
unknown

I'm thankful for the daily food,
Upon our table spread,
For meat and milk and fruit so good,
For work that brings us bread.

I'm thankful for each bird that sings,
For stars and waving trees,
For colors which the autumn brings,
And sounds and sights like these.

I'm thankful for my bed and rest,
For dark when daylight ends;
Of all my thanks, this is the best:
For family and friends.
