Thanksgiving Everyday;



Thanksgiving Everyday,
                                   by; F.M. Faber,
                                   aka Hayward Christian Beach:
For the blue of the sky,
The LIFE we breathe.
A stalwart oak,
The autumn leave.

For the grandeur of mountains,
Golden meadows below.
For the bright of the sun,
and the moon's silv'ry glow.

For the black of night,
With stars on high.
For the laughter of children,
and a babe's soft CRY.

For the warmth of friends,
A loved one's embrace.
A hearty laugh,
And a smiling FACE.

For the essence of spices,
The bread we eat,
The green, green grass,
Yes, and two good FEET.

For all these things,
And myriad more.
             We lift our voices to sing,

Thank YOU God for EVERYTHING:
