A Poem
From Mrs. Eby ...
-IV First Thanksgiving—
Children do you know the story
of the first Thanksgiving day?
Founded by our Pilgrim fathers
in that time so far away
They have given for religion,
wealth and comfort, yes ,and
more,
Left their friends and homes and
kinsman for that bleak and bar.
ren shore
On rugged old New England
Headland, there where peaceful
Plymouth lies.
There they built their rude lug
cabins ncath the cold forbid
ding skies,
And too often e'ne the bravest
felt their blood run cold with
dread
Lest the wild and savage red man
burn the roof above his head,
Want and sioknrss, death and
sorrow met their eyes on every
hand.
And before the spring had reach
ed them they had buried half
their band,
But those patient pilgrhn mothers
as the harvest time drew near.
Looked with happy thankful fa
ces at the fill corn in the ear.
So the Governor, William Brad
ford in the gladness of his
heart,
To thank God for those brave
pilgrims set a special day apart,
That was in the autumn children,
sixteen hundred twenty one.
Scarce a year from when they
landed and the colony began,
And now in bleak and cold No
vember, when our Thanksgiving
feast is spread,
Think its the same time hon
ored custom of those Pilgrims
long since dead.
