Orchards have shared their treasures, The fields, their yellow grain, So open wide the doorway~ Thanksgiving comes again! ~Old Rhyme ~~~~~~~~ All in a Word By Aileen Fisher T for time to be together, turkey, talk, and tangy weather. H for harvest stored away, home, and hearth, and holiday. A for autumn’s frosty art, and abundance in the heart. N for neighbors, and November, nice things, new things to remember. K for kitchen, kettles’ croon, kith and kin expected soon. S for sizzles, sights, and sounds, and something special that abounds. That spells ~~~THANKS—for joy in living and a jolly good Thanksgiving. ~~~~~~~~ At Grandma’s House I like the taste of turkey Any time throughout the year But it never seems to taste as good As when Thanksgiving’s here. Could be it’s all the trimmings That are cooked with it to eat- But I think it’s eating at Grandma’s house That makes it such a treat! ~Author Unknown ~~~~~~~~ Song of the Pilgrims By Nancy Sue Krenrich Across the rolling, wind-swept sea For months we’ve sailed along, I see a land that’s new to me Against the blue horizon. Oh, beautiful land of freedom born, I’ve come across the sea To reap your fruits and build my home, And make my people free. ~~~~~~~~
