Hope everyone who celebrates had a great Thanksgiving. Otherwise, that you enjoyed your Wednesday.

Turkey Day
I call it Turkey Day.
Not because I have nothing to be thankful
for, or even because I like turkey best
–pumpkin pie and crescent rolls compete for the victor–
but because we ought to be thankful most days,
shouldn’t we?
Not every day, that’s excessive.
Some days are terrible
and best let to fade
but there are all kinds of wonder and kindness and laughter
to treasure and remember. And if we only do that one day
when we’re reminded to, so many thanks will go unthought
unsaid
unrepaid.

Thanks to all of you, for reading, commenting, and just being you. It’s great knowing there are so many bibliophiles and writers out there!

Well said, Caitlin. Or maybe, well-versed? 🙂 I agree, there is always, always something to be grateful for, and yet, we so seldom stop to say thank you. You’ve inspired me to write a new poem myself. Maybe even this afternoon! 🙂
We spent yesterday afternoon with Nicki and her family, and it was lovely. Didn’t take a single picture, though. DOH! Too busy having fun, I guess. Missed my kids, though. 😦 But thankful for friends who are honorary “family,” anyway.
Happy belated Thanksgiving to you, AND happy belated birthday, as well. I was doing so good there, and then I went and forgot to keep track of dates! Still, I hope it was a fun one!
Sounds like fun! Happy holidays!
You sent me ALL the books for my birthday, so really you were early, not late. 😀
