Take it from an old military man, there is no gremlin
Be it domestic or straight from the gated Kremlin
That should be allowed to destroy our sense of peace
Let’s find grace today and from our troubles release
At least long enough to share in the breaking of bread
Allowing memories of love and family to fill our heads
And forget at least for this moment and on this day
Any path but that of the truest sense of the American way
To hold our Lord in grateful supplication and thankfulness
For our turkey and ham or side of beefy wonderfulness
Let us toward our thoughts and hearts to tenderness
Let all of our words flow with love given in gentleness
Today is our day when along with seconds of blessings
We need to join together in humility and no second guessing
……….A wise saying says something like this and it’s something we should not miss
Let there be peace on Earth and let it begin with us….
……… We are given this moment and maybe never again to tell each other this
It’s God, family and country that matters and not all this contentious business…..
…….. Someone you know could really use a hug today
Please go ahead and give it to them, … That’s the truest American way…..
