THANKSGIVING

Many people go through life wishing
Always wanting more than they possess
When we see how others are forced to live,
Why is it so few people feel blessed?

You do not live in a war zone,
With fighting and killing close-by
Afraid that this day might just be your last
That this is the day that you’ll die

You do not live in a barren land
Complaining of hunger and thirst
The rain, storms, heat and the sunshine
You are sheltered from the elements worst

You have friends and family who love you
A loving husband and son at your side
So many out there have no-one
As all their friends and their loved ones have died

So don’t waste your life wishing and wanting
Or you’ll miss out on what you possess
A life so many only dream of
So many, unlike you, who aren’t blessed.
