Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving

Thank You
  for all my hands can hold--
    apples red,
      melons gold,
        yellow corn
          both ripe and sweet,
            peas and beans
              so good to eat!

Thank You
  for all my eyes can see--
    lovely sunlight,
      field and tree,
        white cloud-boats
          in sea-deep sky,
            soaring bird
              and butterfly.

Thank You
  for all my ears can hear--
    birds' song echoing
      far and near,
        songs of little
          stream, big sea,
            cricket, bullfrog,
              duck and bee!

~ Ivy O. Eastwick

Wishing you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!
