November's Gratitude

Thanksgiving 2017

'Give thanks
for each new morning
with its light,
for rest and shelter
of the night,
for health and food,
for love and friends,
for everything
thy goodness sends.'

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

  3. Beautiful poem. I think as we get older, we are more and more thankful for all the little blessings - things we wouldn't have thought twice about in our younger years.
