Thanksgiving Is a Staple

Thanksgiving preserves the heart.
Like rice, beans and bread
Food items
Have kept us alive
Through both the good
And rough times.
Items that strengthened
And preserved.

To learn the true art
Of giving sincere thanks
Strengthens the heart
And preserves it
From negativities, such as
Bitterness, thanklessness
And the like.
Be a grateful heart.
