Tina,
This is a wonderful poem with a dual metaphoric meaning. It goes with the Thanksgiving feast. Each writier on this site is a part of the meal to be thankful for. The table is this site which always greets new members nicely.
Keep writing, stay healthy and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Thank you, Joan. Your words captured the welcoming vibe and respect supplied to any and all here.
Happy Thanksgiving! I am grateful for your poetic influence for real! I have much to learn.
Hugs! Stay healthy please:)
BTW...We are quarantined, having been exposed to Covid in a family member. Funny, how God still gives joy, though I can't be with my family.
Read you later,
Tina

Well done Tina. Nice rhymes, great rhythm, and humor, spot on. Well, not so much love around on FS, but you can find some that one just are splendid to have as friends, good persons. Yet, like everything else, you get the good with the bad, and its up to you to sustain the joy. You wrote a love thing here. I wish it the best. Its warrants a six star, for even the thought alone. Good luck in the competition. Well thought out and delivered.
Bravo.

Nicely done, Tina. You have expressed your heartfelt thoughts and have included the FanStory members. That was a nice gesture when you invited others to the FanStory Thanksgiving table.

It's such a nice alternate universe here, that I think everyone would live it as I do.
Nothing's perfect, but there's a lot to be grateful for here! Like new friends like you!

Comment from Seshadri_Sreenivasan
A delightful poem with sweet-sounding words flowing smoothly, rhyming well and reading goodwill. sweet and skillfully written rhyming poem in tribute to your friends at Fanstory. Bringing our focus back to gratitude is always a good idea. As you make our way through the day, we should try to make time to give thanks for the good that's come our way, in both big ways and small. Happy Thanksgiving!

Wow, nicely done. The rhyming works well, and the flow is smooth.
The four-line structure makes good sense. Images are strong and will certainly touch the emotion of all who are Fanstory members.

Thank you so much for the review and personal comments. What a memorable holiday you had! It would make for a good short story. Your child's bun in the oven was born, now time for the turkey! No disrespect intended. I'm silly. May God bless you and your precious new grandbaby!

A sweet and skillfully written rhyming poem in tribute to your friends at Fanstory. The poem is charming and the ending just perfect.
There's still room at this table.
It's meant for all to share,
so grab a pen and paper
and please pull up a chair!
Good luck in the contest.
