Great poem, Brooke, about being thankful for the little things. Nice end rhymes and alliteration throughout. Repetition of lines emphasizes the message. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! 8)

Brooke;
definitely a great poem for the Readers Digest magazine or the calling book, whatever. This is an exceptionally written poem great for Thanksgiving and just plain the great for everything, anywhere at any time.
Exceptional rhyming in the rhythm with tempo and meter so perfectly timed. Where the rhyming is neither forced nor labored and helped with the rhythmic flow.
And where your resourceful imagination has great creativity and inventiveness which makes it very great descriptive and expressive imagery: "For my cat when it comes to nuzzle, for the pop when I blow a bubble, for the piece that completes a puzzle- give thanks for the joy like brings." Just plain marvelous.
Thank you for sharing and posting and may you have the happiest of a Happy Thanksgiving.
Alex

As always, Brooke, totally refreshing. I read this twice, the second time to my wife, reading aloud. You are so gifted, and we are blessed that you share. Well done, Bill

Effective repeated lines.
Excellent rhythm and rhyme
Lively natural presentation
The Bible says that ingratitude is worse than witchcraft and so to give thanks is to be blessed
