Are you grateful?

See the wind blows so differently

On a day like today

Everyone out shopping

Cooking

Eating

Living like this was always the way

It’s like all the world put

On a play

Actors on display

You all pretend to say

What you really wanna say

But how are you grateful

For only one day

Knowing bills are coming up to pay

Knowing work is tomorrow

You couldn’t possibly stay

Everyone has gone a stray

Their spirit they are bound

To betray

Because you appear grateful now

But watch when the month is May

You all act as if the world is

Not okay

And inside you suffer

Yes, you slowly decay

Following the lay of the land

Oh my how you all obey

Moving like rats in a maze

In a dance

How you all just sway

Well I’m here to tell you

You’re all just prey

They lie to you each and every day

If only you’d find out

You wouldn’t be in such dismay

Every time the world

Doesn’t seem to go your way

You’d smile, laugh

And you’d probably come out and say

“Maybe that’s how things go today, tomorrow or even an hour from now things won’t look so gray”

Do this constantly and you may see

Positivity start to lay

The bricks of the home in which you choose

To stay

Or don’t then make yourself a survey

Analyze yourself day to day

Especially what you do, think and say

Compose it together

In array

Find out what your own conclusions

Portray

Are you a grateful person

Or really just today?

Does that answer make you happy or disarray

It’s never to late to change

Build a new you like clay

Become more grateful

Laugh, love, play

Nothing is stopping you

From living this way

Just don’t delay

Or you may replay

The sadness the gray

It’s all about how

You act, what you say

If you must, just smile and pray

And I’m sure

Sooner than later

Everything will be okay

Happy Turkey Day
