It started in a kitchen
Many years ago
Before the dawn had broken
Amidst the falling snow
Everyone was sleeping
The magic was in play
The turkey in the oven
It was Thanksgiving Day
Then came the aromas
The baking of the pies
The scents that fill the household
As you open up your eyes
The table graced with china
And smells do fill the air
Just close your eyes and remember
And memory takes you there
About the Poem – Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is an inspirational poem by Robert Longley. It recounts our days of childhood awaking to the smells of Thanksgiving dinner being cooked
Inspirational Poetry Books
Here are some of the books that are available from Robert Longley. I would recommend the Sacred Poem journals. Reading my earlier books (especially the ones for Military, Police and Firefighter’s families) cover to cover can be overwhelming. The poetry journals are designed to give you one poem per day while you journal about what might be going on in your life. There are specific journals for grief, success, and more.

Inspirational Poetry Products
While I do signed poetry prints that are 11×14, that isn’t the size or product that all people want. Some just want a sympathy card, others may want a large canvas print, or maybe a coffee cup. There are limits to what I can customize with the options available so some products just don’t work. Please just ignore them, I know that that format doesn’t work. If you are looking for something specific, or would like to make something specific just let me know. I’m open to just about anything.
