Thanksgiving<\/strong><\/p>\n

As The Holiday
\nLoomed,
\nwith Its requisite
\nBurdens of
\nplucked and roasted
\nBirds and
\ncandied yams,<\/p>\n

a Friend
\nInquired:<\/p>\n

What are You
\nThankful for?<\/p>\n

I struggled to
\nassemble some
\nSmartass Quippery
\nbut, Failing,
\nshrugged out
\nsome
\nnod to
\nthe Blessedness of
\nFamily.<\/p>\n

Which is True.
\nI Am
\nSo Blessed,
\nas Likely are
\nYou.<\/p>\n

But, this
\npre-dawn Morning,
\nI Know What
\nI Am
\nTruly and Incorrigibly
\nThankful for,<\/p>\n

on Behalf of
\nMy Self,
\nMy Family,
\nYour Blessed Self, and
\nYour Family, and
\nAll That Is:<\/p>\n

We Are
\nForever
\nSparks of The Divine,<\/p>\n

Fractals of
\nThe Light That Is
\nNothing but Love
\nWithout Condition or
\nWhisper of Judgment.<\/p>\n

Holy Beings
\nWho need only
\nAwaken to
\nOur Sacred Selves.<\/p>\n

For All
\nof That
\nI Am
\nForever Thankful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
