Mastering Bird Day
I did the ‘bird and nap’ routine
as well as anyone’s ever seen
a wonderful tradition I must say
to celebrate a joyous glutton’s day
Turkey brown and stuffing filled there
and sweet potatoes, a tasty fare
salads and breads and gravies splash
and pumpkin spice gives the pie a dash
Wine, sharing a laugh and a knowing grin
surely camaraderie with food is not a sin
the fireside talks and the games we tried
until sleep came where some did but abide
Gossip grand and making plans to come
a season upon us and not one humdrum
tomorrow I’ll be charged up to do my thing
but now I’m gonna nap until the clock sings
If I haven't already thanked you for Opening and hostessing Amy's on Wednesday, THANK YOU!
If I did, well thank you again. Your Cedar Waxwing is beautiful.
