Thanksgiving on my Home's Shore...

All on the land animals,
All in the sea, fish & mammals,
Give thanks to God for the food we eat,
And swear to Him, to of others well we will treat...


Poem Artwork

Thanksgiving I will celebrate,
In a place that I consider great,
Where I can talk to Mother ocean,
Therein being where I show the most devotion…

No matter the weather,
Be it windy or cold,
Or wet and wild,
Mom ocean keeps me feeling mild…

Before giving thanks for the food I eat,
And afterwards a walk on the sand in bare feet,
Mom ocean herself may be quite cold,
But walking on my beach on Thanksgiving never gets old…

I have always been drawn to the sea and made it there just about every summer. Ahhhh! That salt air! I love it.

My ancestors were very close to the sea and some of that lingers in me. Nicely expressed, Ed. Love and peace to you,

Very nicely put, Ed. While I never was around the ocean much I can't exactly comprehend your devotion to it, but I know it comes from your heart
