| Family Reunion
by Virginia Blanck Moore 1962
The table's set with Grandma's best,
The silver's shining bright,
The crystal's sparkling in the sun,
The linen's snowy white.
And from the kitchen comes the smell
Of what her hands prepare...
A turkey browning to a turn,
Pies baked with loving care.
The house is spotless as can be;
The panes of windows flow;
And Grandpa's sweeping from the steps
A trace of feather snow.
This is their day when once again
The children will be here,
Gathered around the table's rim
From places far and near.
And when the quiet moment comes
When heads are bowed to pray,
They'll thank the Lord for family ties
And for Thanksgiving Day. | |
