More than Milk and Eggs

More
   than
          milk and eggs                      We wait
as the chilled shelves fill up
                         with Thanksgiving
Almost in his tween hands, but it was
                                pumpkin, bleck
Aww, the tongue and throat
                                       ready
                                            for a coat
          as it rains, as it pours
a
  tall
       glass

of eggnog satisfaction
                                     a holiday treat
dusted with love
                           can’t
                                    wait

Dear Kim, All the season treats are taken from the mundane milk and eggs. It is interesting that certain foods and drinks only get attention at certain times of the year. Now I am thirsty! Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

But that is kind of good. I remember those holiday movies too. Having to wait can make the treat even better. Bless you, Daniel!
