thank you
Hello friends:
It is Thanksgiving Day here in Canada. Whether you’re celebrating this weekend or on November 24th, or if you celebrated on September 25th, whether you’re on the road or gathered around the dining table, with family or with friends and especially if you are alone, I wish you a happy Thanksgiving.
thank you
for breathing easy
not humidity-wheezy
for cam who chose me, loves me
and is my security
for mum and dad who adored me completely
encouraged and nurtured me oh-so-sweetly
for my extended family living here
and in scotland - every one a dear
for friends who enrich my life
and help me through all kinds of strife
for my arts and letters team
who encourage me to dream
for our cosy, delightful, kingsville homestead
for the floor ‘neath my toes and the roof o’er my head
for my cameras and photography kit
more important to me than I care to admit
for the wildlife I shoot in my favourite parks
for the beautiful scenery and amazing landmarks
for tom turkey’s heady aroma in our kitchen
and the bounty my life is oh-so-rich-in
and yes, for flamboyantly-coloured leaves too
I accept this abundance with joy and gratitude.
With love to and thanks for each one of you.
’Til next time, y’all…
