This is a difficult conversation, but one well worth having with your boss, as it will help him grow in his management skills as well. If it were me and I felt strongly about the subject, I would likely try to catch him alone at a quiet non-stressed moment and say something along these lines:
"Bossie, I really enjoy working for you and I love my job. There is one small area of concern that I have. I have noticed that you almost never say thank you, no matter what task I complete. I know that I receive my salary for doing my work and that should be good enough, but honestly, this makes me worry that you are not entirely pleased with the job I have done. A sincere expression of appreciation on occasion would really mean a lot to me. I just wanted to let you know how I felt about the subject. I hope you'll take this into consideration for the future."
