\"Give<\/p>\n

by Charles Frederick White (November, 1895 )<\/p>\n

Thanksgiving day is coming soon,
That long remembered day
When nature gives her blessed boon
To all America.<\/p>\n

On that glad day, in all our land,
The people, in their wake,
Give thanks to God, whose mighty hand
Deals blessings good and great.<\/p>\n

The roast goose, steaming on the plate,
The sweet potato cobbler,
The cranberry sauce, the pudding baked,
The seasoned turkey gobbler,\u00c2\u00ad<\/p>\n

All these delights and many more,
From north, south, west and east,
Do all the nation keep in store
For this Thanksgiving feast.<\/p>\n

Alas, for those who are denied
This blessed boon of God!
May all the needy be supplied
Like Israel by the rod.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
