Here I am, on this special day
Sitting and searching for something to say.
Words are much harder, in early light
But come in torrents, late at night.
Starting with giving thanks
To all the Sisters and Brothers
Aunts, Cousins, Fathers and Mothers,
For the Veterans who live
And for those who died,
That served our country
To keep us, all safe and free
From tyranny and of debauchery.
My prayers go forth,
To all of the others,
May you have a peaceful
Thanksgiving Day, with no misgiving
And remember it's the season of giving.
Prayers to all.

Many years have now passed since
I went away, to be at sea.
This picture brings back the past
days of an old Navy memory;
on a return, to our home afloat,
that is anchored, but not at sea.

There is this light,
deep inside of me,
that's burning so bright
and makes me see,
beauty in our life,
that will last eternally,
for that, was asked of we.

Love is, where it is at.
Be it person, dog or cat.
It is better, loving something small
then not loving, anything at all.
