Thanksgiving


Thanksgiving


On Thanksgiving day we will say a prayer,
With family and friends gathered there,
Thankful to all be together,
Sharing the holiday with each other.

There will be a place set at the table for you,
Knowing you will be joining us too,
Looking down from heaven above,
Surrounding us with your love.

Your physical absence will be keenly felt,
But your spiritual presence will be all about,
You never missed a holiday while you were here,
Death won’t keep you from being near.

Happy Thanksgiving, dearest one,
We are so blessed you were our son,
We thank God for the gift of you,
And remember you in all we do.
