Thanksgiving


we drive and we drive through inclement weather
awaiting our loved ones to see
we cling to our birthrights to be at the table
and eat a fine dinner at three
for our mothers and grandmas have held in their hearts
such love for their whole family
so without them to celebrate the holidays
their purpose would no longer be
remember well, then, on Thanksgiving this year
that it’s love makes the world go around
a hug means much more
no one’s keeping score
so give them away, not just to a tree
