The Long Lost Word
In kindergarten it wasone of the first words we were taught
but somewhere along the way
we somehow forgot
It's always been available
and so many will refuse it
everyday, so few will say
and even choose to use it
Once a year, a holiday,
the reminding of the little bird
But after that, there's not much chat
and we hardly use the word
I search and looked and questioned
Is there any other way?
A word that's been forgotten
that could so easily make my day
I opened up a closed room
and stood right by the door
and someone finally said it
while everyone else just simply ignored
for she actually did say it
for this there is no prank
I had finally heard the long lost word
a women giving thanks.
