A Poem by anais.vionet

We're in the Holidays now! Woot!

Thanksgiving is almost here,
annoying school bells have stopped ringing.
Turkeys are huddling, out of sight,
and the garbage men are singing.

We’re beginning to prep side dishes,
slicing, dicing, mashing, peeling,
and I’m smiling ‘cause I feel myself
swept up in holiday feelings.

I hope that Macys is ready
for their seasonal parade.
We’ll be watching as we start to cook
the banquet that we’ve made.

I’m wishing everyone plenty,
as we shelter in our homes.
On this tame 2020 holiday,
that we’re spending home alone.

I felt thankful for what I have...for my close friends, for being healthy...
but it also was a somber day as one of my best friend's mom died of Covid...

she was 90...and another of my friends came down with it...
tough times...
but there is hope on the horizon that maybe next Turkey Day and Christmas might
just be a bit more normal.
