Thanksgiving a Holy-day

POEM AND PHOTO BY ED NORTHEN

 We use the term holiday

derived from the Old English

Holy Day

 

but have strayed

from the purpose

of gratitude

 

more thought given

to activities

then contemplative reflection

 

formation abdicated

to entertainment

and fun

 

gratitude

turns the soul

from coveting

 

to appreciation

for provision

for life

 

to compassion

for others

acknowledging

our blessings.

 

Gratitude

a discipline

not simply an inward feeling

 

but an outward endeavor

enacted

from a grateful heart

 

which alters,

forms within us

something sacred

something holy
