I thought I would post another poem I wrote during a Thanksgiving season one year or another. I don’t really remember when. I hope you enjoy it…
My Thankful Heart…
as i ponder on this thankful day
i wonder if all may come what may
to know the one true God is ever so
the one thing best…of this i know
tis turkey, sauce, potatoes mashed
gravy, pie and more is cached
within my gut expanded more than not
and i care?…not a second thought
no…family…children and my spouse
life and joy…our not so big house
some pets & cars…gas in the tank
these are those for which i thank
almighty God…His loving gift
to save me from the chasms rift
his Son and He in agreement do
rescue me and rescue you
through broken heart…amazing love
my life becomes…hand in a glove
where He does move and work His life
in and through our inbuilt strife
and beauty He does leave in me
not unlike a beauteous blooming tree
i’m grateful for these many things you see
for…He draws me daily through eternity
to dwell and live and laugh and shine
within the triune God divine
I rest and become one with Him
I laugh & sing with cherubim
for this you see is where I’m free
it is where I’m meant to be
embraced by Love in Father’s care
what joy to live forever there
