A FALL DAY 


  Morning is filled with a fog coming off the lake,


  A beautiful sight, chilly is the breeze, very early.


  Quiet is the way, a dream that i will have this day,


  Trees stand watching all around, their leaves upon 
  The ground.
 
  A beautiful scene the lake shows when soon the fog 
  Does clear,

  Everyone is still asleep on this Thanksgiving day, a fire 
  Burning.

  Chopped wood is what is needed to keep a home warm 
  On this holiday,

  On this Fall day we will share our lives in peace and love.


  I can hear the voices of children, awake now is the family,


  Relatives will arrive soon, wife is inside preparing a turkey,


  A Fall day in November, will there ever be one like it again?
