Happy Thanksgiving and the End of the November Challenge

                                 

A challenge I made for thankfulness

Your thanks I asked, and nothing less

Day by day I mentioned my own Hoping that I'd reap what was sown. 

Here it is the already the twenty-third

And many of you are readying the bird

I'm doing that too, my friends, today

And counting the blessings along the way. 

 Below are my thanks as I've written each day

I couldn't ask you if I didn't play. 

I am going to save this list of thankfulness

For the days when my life is just not bliss

I'll look at these things as gentle reminders

There's a way to be grateful if I take off my blinders

Happy Thanksgiving from my family to you

Here are my words yes, faithful and true:
