  1. Sparrow, Beautifully written. I think I might read this piece, silently, out loud, everday, Thanksgiving thru Christmas, and what the heck, “everday” . Maybe not word for word, but “Than’ You, Lord”, simplistic. Giving Thanks is so easy, but “human nature”, steps in, and what is so simple, “thank you”, gets “lost”. Thank you Sparrow. TexGen❤️
