Thankful ?

© - Tom Hyland - 11/21/12


So ... do we Really have Anything to be Thankful for?


My Evening Prayers always Start with this:

“Thank You God, for another Wonderful, Beautiful day!”
( Even if there’s a Blizzard - my Eyes opened in the morning )
Just being Alive ... and able to SEE!

“Thank You God, for all my Wonderful Blessings!”
Faith - Family - Friends - and Excellent Health!
Just Four things I Ponder.

“Thank You God, for Healing and Protecting ...
All my Family and Friends!”
( Usually Name currently seriously ill persons. )

“I am Happy, and Grateful, and Thankful for:
My Home, my Car, my Job, and my Friend Pat”
Just Four more Blessings.

Besides Eyes able to See ...
Ears that Hear ...
A Nose that Smells ...

A Mouth that Eats ...
A Tongue that Tastes ...
Hands to Hold ...

Legs to Walk ... Feet to Tap ...
A Heart that Pumps ... and Loves ...
Bowels that Purge ...

THANK GOD FOR THAT!

A Dependable Social Security Deposit Every Month!
A Small Pittance Pension from JHU ...
A Ground Rent for Trailer ... Cheaper than any Apartment!

A Loving Family that Helps One Another ...
Friends that Do Likewise ...
A Faith to Sustain through ‘Bad Times’ ...

With the Exception of Occasional Gastric Bouts ...
And Osteo-Arthritis Knee Pains ...
Otherwise ... Excellent Health!

Had Quarterly doctor Check-Up Yesterday ...
All Systems Fine!
Even Got Flu & Pneumonia Shots!

A Fine Lady that Puts Up with my Shenanigans ...
Well ... Mostly ... when we Ain’t Fussin’ ...
And ... the ‘Make-Up’ Sex Ain’t Half Bad Either!

TMI ?


THANKFUL ?

YOU BET’CHA YER BP ... I AM !


A ‘HAPPY THANKS-GIVING’ TO ALL ...

AND ... TO ALL A ‘GOOD NIGHT’ !

I'm thankful that I can hang onto a poem until I have time to read it. This one's swell...I'm also thankful for cyber-friends like you!

Better late than never,

You betcha you are! I'm grateful for that. If that's a picture of your family, it extends into the next room! Best wishes on a beautiful day––another beautiful day.

Blessed are those that know they are blessed. And Happy Thanksgiving to you, Cuz Cur. I'll have a shot of Wild Turkey (or two or three) in your honor today. (I'm savin the Spiritus for Christmas.)
