Thanksgiving Night
We ate the turkey and the sides,
We watched the big parade,
Conversed with all the grown-ups
And with grandkids laughed and played.
A typical Thanksgiving
But quite special nonetheless
And as a guest, I didn’t cook
Or clean up all the mess!
Of all the holidays, this one
Unites both kith and kin,
Reminding us of where we are
In life, and where we’ve been.
