“Thanksgiving Wishes”
I wish you all that pen and ink
Could write, and then some more!
I hope you cannot even think
Of half you’re thankful for.
I hope your table holds a wealth
Of prime Thanksgiving fare,
And Love and Peace and Joy and Health
Will all be seated there.
I trust your guests will all be bright,
But none of them too wise,
And each will bring an appetite
For mince or pumpkin pies.
I hope the fowls will all be fat,
The cider sweet to quaff,
And when you snap a Wishbone, that
You’ll win the larger half!
~Arthur Guiterman
Oh, I remember breaking the wishbone and hoping that I got the bigger half when we were kids!
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Thank you for your sweet comments. You are such a good friend! Love ya!
