THANKS GIVING....!

          Who ever thought of this,
             The thanks giving Day,
               I am thankful for, lest
                  I , forget  to thank.

          I thank not only, for what,
            I got readily, by birth,
              But also for,I got. though,
                by my sweat and blood.
     
           Though not I asked to be,
              Born,they gave the gift,
               Of life, my head and heart
                   I thank my ma and pa....

           I thank my teachers all,
              who, held my hand to walk,
                  to lift me up from the ditch
                     I fell , with a pat on my back.

           Looking back now, I need,
             To thank,those who envied me
                Ones who followed every step
                    Finding fault all the way

           For, They have made me  do ,
                Things, i would not, but for them,
                    It s time I thank them now,lest
                       I forget  , before I thank my friends

           Now, my dear friends, not many ,
                though, they know,I am grateful,
                  Ever, old and new, for being,
                     With me through thick and thin.
       
            I thank my kids too, for  the sheer joy,
              Of mothering them, for teaching them,
                  Bringing them up, has been the greatest,
                      fulfillment of my dreams!
           
            I thank, every day, The All mighty,
               For giving me the strength  to face the
                 Odds of life,  for peace and pray
                    For health and happiness to one and all.
