All in a Word

by Aileen Fisher

T
for time to be together,
turkey, talk, and tangy weather.
H
for harvest stored away,
home, and hearth, and holiday.
A
for autumn’s frosty art,
and abundance in the heart.
N
for neighbors, and November,
nice things, new things to remember.
K
for kitchen, kettles’ croon,
kith and kin expected soon.
S
for sizzles, sights, and sounds,
and something special that abounds.

That spells THANKS–for joy in living
and a jolly good Thanksgiving.
