happy thanksgiving wishes to ya!

i'd wax poetic on all the lovely things...and the lovely people...i'm grateful for, but it occured to me that one song says it better than i ever could.

it's one thing to read the beautiful lyrics written by george weiss and bob thiele. it's transcendent when louis armstrong pours his gravelly molasses voice over those same words. but for now, i'll let the typewritten lyrics express how blessed i'm feeling...

"what a wonderful world"

i see trees of green, red roses, too,

i see them bloom for me and you,

and i think to myself, what a wonderful world.

i see skies of blue and clouds of white,

the bright blessed day, the dark sacred night,

and i think to myself, what a wonderful world.

the colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky,

are also on the faces of people going by,

i see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "how do you do?"

they're really sayin', "i love you."

i hear babies cryin', i watch them grow,

they'll learn much more than i'll ever know,

and i think to myself, what a wonderful world,

yes, i think to myself, what a wonderful world.
