On a winter's crisp November morning

And the leaves are falling to the ground

The fog hovers over the meadow

The sounds of wild life all around

A gentle breeze blows across my face

An early morning mist I do embrace

The day Of Thanksgiving is at hand

We are blessed to live in this land

The aroma of roasted turkey fills the air

All pies have been baked, set out in pairs

Stuffing with chestnuts, cranberries sauce,

Candied Yams, peas, and salad tossed

We'll be blessed with family and friends

A big big spread, Yes that's the trend

When dinner is over, we're all stretched out

Me in my chair and Maw on the couch

I'll bless this day, in a land to be free

Thank the men fighting for you and me

Praying soon they all be home to stay

Never forgetting God gave us this day
