THANKSGIVING

Sitting here alone this thanksgiving. Bored with nothing to do. Just wandering around aimlessly. Not really looking, not really concentrating and then I found it. Staring at me like an open invitation. The warm smile calling me. Wow, I was intrigged. Looked and saw that the lights were out and nobody was home. Still felt it was worth taking the shot and said my hellos anyways. Then I heard a response. A southern voice flowed from the smile. It was indeed warm and inviting just as I had felt. Then before you know it, the seconds turn to minutes, the minutes turn to hours and the day had gone from light to dark. Where did the day go? It was lost in the conversation where time didnt seem to exist. What a great feeling that time seemed to stand still. Here I was at the start of the day thinking what should I be thankful for? Little did I know that I found my reasons staring at me this lonely Thanksgiving Day.
