Halloween is over
Jack o lanterns get thrown out
Ghosts go away
Turkeys and pilgrims take their place
Spiderwebs become
Golden wreaths of leaves
And the faint promise of Christmas
Is in the air
We focus not
On what we are afraid of
But what we are thankful for
Delicious food, fun parades
Loving family and friends
We trade fake costumes
For simple, warm
And formal clothes
Earthy tones
Connecting us to our roots
Allowing us to celebrate
What we love
Thanksgiving is love
Hope
Gratitude
Coziness
Happiness
And Relaxation
What dose thanksgiving mean to you?
