Holiday Prep

Today I hit the kitchen With my apron neatly tied, Preparing many recipes My file did provide. For each year on the holiday, I measure, chop and mix, To make the dishes that tradition Taught me how to fix. If I have the ingredients, The project’s kind of Zen. I get into the zone of knowing That I’m back again To carry on like I have done So many times before, Reminding me of who I am Way deep inside the core.
