Monologue Mania Day #1015 Paws to Say Thanks by Janet S. Tiger (c) Nov. 23, 2016

          (A dog emerges with a napkin around the neck.)

Ruff!  Ruff!  Thank you, now that I have your undivided attention, I want to let everyone know my words will be few.  That's of course, because I'm a dog, and have a limited vocabulary.  

This is a holiday about thanks - and I wanted everyone to notice that this is one of the few holidays, nay, the ONLY holiday in the year, which does not rely on gifts....did you ever notice that?  Yes, my friends of all numbers of legs, no presents are required on this day.....only your....PRESENCE...get it?  P-R-E-S-E-N-C-E!  Pretty good for a dog, huh?

But you know I'm right, on Thanksgiving, you just show up and be thankful for all your blessings - for the friends and family that make life worthwhile - like all of you right here!

         (Stands on hind legs and waves paws at the audience, bows, then starts to bounce off,  stops, looks back, smiling)

.......And.....now.......let's eat!

---------------------------------------------------------

For my family and friends - and that includes the non-human ones, too! - thank you for reading and commenting and please know that every day I am grateful to have you all in my life !

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!
