Why Should I Say "Thank You" -- A Thanksgiving Poem

For the things that I receive?

Why should I say "Thank You"

If my work success achieves?

All the things that I am given

Are results of my success.

After all I am so driven

And don't even stop to rest.

I'll tell you why I am so thankful

Why to others I am so grateful --

'Cause all that I receive

And all that I achieve

Cost someone else so dearly,

I can see that very clearly.

And even though I've worked

And used my mind as well,

The knowledge, effort and words

Are gifts from God's deep well.

So, why should I say "Thank You"

For all the ways I'm blessed?

To prove that I am grateful

And never have regrets.
