PANTHER PRIDE FOCAL POINT
In honor of this well deserved short week, I present to you;
Thanksgiving ~ A Poem.
It is a short week, Or haven’t you heard?
A Five day break, so well deserved.
We'll be Thankful for the turkey. And Thankful for the Pie.
Thankful for all the wonderful foods we get to try.
But it is without a doubt, this much I swear is true.
I am forever Thankful, For Each and All of You!
Have a great week! Happy Thanksgiving, and GO PANTHERS!
