Reflections On a Roasting Pan
Reflections on a Roasting Pan
The secret place where a woman goes
To wonder about the way life flows.
The ‘day after’ blues are setteling in,
Please, a few hours to see where we’ve been.
Great Uncle Dan, the turkey, another pie,
Another year gone, it’s rushed right on by.
New jobs, new babies, new wrinkles to see,
Young people still looking at life with glee.
The same stories about walking 10 miles to school.
New stories about I pods, in this the young rule.
This day for reflection and mopping the floor,
Thank God I’m not with those 4am nuts at the store.
Note:
Some of my female relatives think it’s hilarious
To join the throngs at the day after
Thanksgiving Sunrise Xmas sales. We do have some
Mutating shopping genes in this family.
