On this Thanksgiving, thanks to All
To the ones who are here and the ones who are gone.
Thanks for the air we breathe
And for the air we exhale
Thanks for the dreams
And thanks for the hope.
Thanks for the food
Thanks for the pets
Thanks for the love
Thanks for the causes
Thanks for the prose.
Thanks for the ceiling
above our heads
And a roof that won't leak
Thanks for the blankets
Thanks for repose.
Thanks for the hot tea
With cinnamon
Thanks for family
Friends and the loved.
Thanks for the sightings
We witnessed on-shore
And the tales at night
which were kindly told.
Thanks for the eyes
That allows us to see
The beauty of this world.
Thanks to you
For being you
Thanks for remaining
Even if you're gone
(You’re part of my soul).
Thanks for reading
Thanks for the immense joy
For these are humble times and
These are humble words.

I'm from Italy and write every day. Being a storyteller by nature, I've entertained (and annoyed) people with my "expositions" since I was a child, showing everyone my primitive drawings, doodles, and poems. Still do! Leave me a comment :)
