A Poem
For What Shall we be thankful"
by Mrs. Sudie Hearn Hol-
oway, who was the niece of Mrs.
Georgia Richards and sister of Clar-
ence Hearn.
Softly, silently the autumn leaves,
Fall in the cool refreshing breeze;
Bringing memories tender and dear,
IF Thanksgiving that will soon be
here.
For what shall we thank him, our
Father above,
First of all for His wondrous love;
n the gift of His son, and His ten
der care,
n sparing us through another year.
Then 70 rthe harvest the golden
grain,
The seasons, the sunshine, the winds
and rain;
FOR all the good things He has CIV
en-,
And the promises at last of home
in Heaven. 9
Where the loved and lost for a little
whole,
shall meet and greet us with a hap
py smile;
What a thanksgiving that will be
When we our Fathers face shall see.
think that then we shall thank Him
for the toll and care,
or surely our crowns will be
brighter for the burdens we
bear
We shall see then why He knew
best,
We shall know at last when we en-
ter our rest.
