Time To Gather

For the day is drawing near.
Thanksgiving turkeys are all
around potatoes they sit bags
at a time on the ground.
The party seems massive as
we start the days chore.
We know there is stills hours
of work in store.
One thing at a time we get
it done, Man this is
definitely no fun.
Yet we know the end is worth
all of this.
For Thanksgiving we will not
miss for the feast will be
set for all to see the
beautiful bounty.
For the family will gather
one by one for all the
festivities and fun.
For this year we will see
all of the family.
We catch up on the past
for we know the day
will not last.
It will past by as fast
as it came.
Family will be gone until
Christmas come near in
that one more time we all
meet to see what has changed.
For all that are here.
The Christmas tree will be
up for all to see along with
the presents for the family.
Food will be set up from
here to there, drinks,snacks
and treats are everywhere.
Just help yourself to as
much as you want.
Then sit down and see all the
family that is before thee.
Until the farewells have come
once again for this family
to say goodbye to all that is
in front of thee.
Thanks to all you for coming
here to celebrate with us
and have this great time.
For we never know what is
in store down the road.
We never know how many times
these celebrations we will see.
