Analysis of Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is a holiday at the end of November.
Thanksgiving is a day that people always remember.
Thanksgiving is autumn with its beautiful leaves
Of red, brown, and yellow falling wherever they please.
Thanksgiving is parades with bands marching proud.
Thanksgiving is football games with fans cheering loud.
Thanksgiving is turkey and a lot of food.
Thanksgiving is caring, sharing, and everything good.
Thanksgiving is families gathering with one another.
Thanksgiving is people being thankful . . . for each other.
