A Thanksgiving Poem

Thankfulness


As a nation, we give thanks.
The Pilgrims cultivated the new world, 
So we can celebrate. 
Our history planted a seed, 
A seed for growth,
Growth through thanks.

On Thanksgiving day, 
We celebrate. 
We celebrate with our families, 
Our friends,
Our loved ones. 

On Thanksgiving day, 
We celebrate. 
We celebrate our achievements, 
Our culture, 
Our nation’s shared history. 

I am thankful for my education, 
My school, 
My educators, 
The lessons I learn, 
You teach me. 

I am thankful for my friends, 
Our laughs, 
Our adventures, 
My happiest memories, 
I share with you. 

I am thankful for my family, 
My parents, 
My sister, 
The love you share,
You are my home.

One day for thanks,
Is not nearly enough, 
I am thankful every day.
Thanksgiving is every day.
