Here is a lovely poem on A Thanksgiving Reflection by Susan Polis Schutz which I would like to share with you. I feel every single word she wrote in this poem and I am sure you do too.
A Thanksgiving Reflection
We don't often
take the time out of
our busy life
to think about all
the beautiful things
and to be thankful for them
If we did
reflect on these things
we would realize how very
lucky and fortunate we really are
I am very thankful
for the love of my husband -
which is so complete and fulfilling
and is based on honesty, equality
intellectualism and romance
I am very thankful
for the love of my children -
which is all encompassing
and is based on teaching, tenderness
sensitivity, caring and hugging
I am very thankful
that I am able to love
and that the love is returned to me
I am very thankful
that I am healthy
and that the people I love
are healthy
I am very thankful
that I have dreams to follow
and goals to strive for
I am very thankful
for the beauty of nature -
magnificent mountains
the colorful leaves
the smell of flowers
the roaring of the waves
the setting sun
the rising moon
Everywhere I look
I see the wonders of nature
and I feel so proud
to be a small part of it
I am very thankful
for all the good people in the world
I am very thankful
that I have good friends
I am very thankful
to be alive
in a time when
we can make the world
a better place
to live in
Thank you
