thanks giving

14 of us gathered around
a rambling fire
after
oven roasted turkey I didn't make
only brought the brie
though roman would be proud
we say
our gratitude to each other
mine is for you
and you there, too

thanks for being with me
and Chloe

green bean casserole with slivered almonds
sweet potatoes
bok choy?

we sit next to each other like razzleberry and pumpkin pie
I'm not so traditional

except for this moment sharing grace
my belly full of it
