A Toast
This year, as we sit down
to give thanks, it is easy to notice we are fewer in number.
Whether by distance...or
by time, we make note of the empty chairs.
But we feel the presence
of those we love.
Let our memories be our
nourishment.
Let our thirst be quenched
by those around us.
Let the hope of days to
come be our anthem of thanks.
Happy Thanksgiving.
