Thanksgiving. When families travel across the country,
across town, across the street to gather
together in fellowship and love
around a table laden with favorite food,
offering a prayer of gratitude to our
Creator for blessings received
and hope renewed. Then, stories
shared of other Thanksgiving Days
like passing a baton generation to
generation. Always some are
missing, leaving an empty
chair forever in our heart.
Sometimes it's a parent or
grandparent, husband or wife;
Or maybe an aunt, uncle, or
brother. Their stories
become part of the stories we
tell; Keeping them close
holding them dear.
