The Making of ThanksgivingA Poem by Cherrie PalmerHappy THanksgivingStirring pumpkin till it's smooth and silky Whipping cream, hoping not too beat to butter Weaving tales too cherubs' smiling neath my feet One room over parades prance, While remote is trembling Waiting on the toss of a coin Waves of laughter spill into the kitchen As aromas drift toward the other Paper plates and Daddies prayer Bring us to the table Boys of age go outside to play Backyard football brings a close to Thanksgiving Day © 2011 Cherrie PalmerReviews
