Thanksgiving blessing

  • Blessing

     

    The table is set

    The dinner is done

    The kids are out playing

    Having some fun

     

    But there is something missing

    A thought I can’t catch

    It’s driving me crazy

    Like an itch I can’t scratch

     

    It’s from those that have left us

    It’s them that I miss

    The memories are fleeting

    Like a soft gentle kiss

     

    I see you up there

    On a cloud in the sky

    A smile on your face

    The twinkle in your eye

     

    And I see from you face

    In your heart you’re elated

    Looking down at the family

    That you have created

     

    They are bright and strong

    And so full of life

    They take good and the bad

    Pleasure and strife

     

    I see you and others

    All whole and all strong

    It’s hard to believe

    You have been gone this long

     

    I see more in the back

    Folks I don’t know

    They smile and watch out

    For us down below

     

    For they are the ones

    Who have come to bear

    They passed on their essence

    Their traits we do share

     

    Will you do me a favor

    Some time when you’re able

    Thank God for our friends

    And the food on our table.
