Thanksgiving For a Wonderful Day

by Frank Hubeny

It’s a perfectly marvelous, glorious day.
The springtime is bright in a light-hearted way.
Softly and kindly God’s speaking to me
and I answer with praise for the wonders I see.

An Answer To The Trending Internet Question – “What Will Your Thanksgiving Menu Be?” Limerick

by Joel Kravitz

Thanksgiving dinner

Internet Foodies are in a frenzy. They can only think about what are they going to make for Thanksgiving, how will they serve it, what will the table look like, and how much leftovers will there be? They are focused on the feast. Me, not so much. Don’t get me wrong, I love turkey, stuffing et all, but I can do without the fixing it. Then while amusing myself surfing the net reading the foodie fantasies, I discovered the answer to the “I can do without fixing it” dilema is in a can. WooHoo!

Thanksgiving Limericks for a Year That We’re Thankful Is Almost Over

by Joel Kravitz

The Thanksgiving feast is always a winner.
There’s nothing like a big turkey dinner.
Bird and sides, then dessert,
We eat ’til we hurt…
And nobody ever leaves thinner.

Huddled Masses

by merlinspielen

They flee
because they are forced
They did not choose
to have bombs dropping on their door
They do no want
to live on a hostile foreign shore.

They run
with what is precious
in aching arms
frightened children crying for food
They would rather
be anywhere than in their homes.

In Life I Discovered

by markfahmy

in-life-i-discovered

In life
I discovered
that the more you give thanks ,
the more you receive.

the more you recite the good moments,
the more they come running towards you.
the more you wonder in awe at this vast Earth,
the more you are born again like new.

A Thankful Heart – Finale

by Morgan

thankfulness2

A Thankful Heart is Open to Blessings
because it is closed to worry, doubt, and wailing.

A Thankful Heart is Filled with Love
because it empties itself of loathing, greed, and envy.

A Post Thanksgiving Problem – poetry challenge monorhyme

by Joel Kravitz

The Thanksgiving buffet was great,
But I am afraid I took the bait
And went back for plate after plate.
Now after everything I ate,
It’s time for a scale to state
What it’s going to take to abate
My waistline’s increased growth rate.
This isn’t open to debate –
This old man needs to lose weight!

But it sure was fun putting it on!

Poetry Challenge: Edibles

by Rana

Poetry challenge: Monorhyme.

My stomach can’t keep the pace

with my chomping jaws. Nothing goes to waste

in this household; always the race

to grab the wishbone and crack the case

of beer, not for football but the grace

A “Black Friday” Limerick

by Joel Kravitz

Thanksgiving was yesterday and that is truly the start of the season of over indulging.
We have to push ourselves away from the table on Thursday and push ourselves into the stores on Friday or now Thursday night.
We morph from gut busters into deal busters going straight from lining up at the dessert table to lining up outside of Target and Wal-Mart.
Is this a great country or what? Overeating and over spending…a capital holiday tradition.
