Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving...

I was supposed to write a poem for tomorrow, but my brain is empty. Instead, I'm going to share one that I wrote years ago. In the meantime, Dr. M has been bagging leaves, scurrying around preparing to cook things, and shooting the moon. Thanks to him, we might actually be ready for our family gathering tomorrow!

For now, here's the moon, plucked from a hazy sky...

    1. Thanks! If you see this reply I want to be on the super secret list of folks who can read your blog - I’m so sad you had to go private :(

  4. As with glass, tin, and paper, so with poetry -- sometimes a little recycling is just the ticket. Happy Thanksgiving!

    1. Man - that’s just too much work. Although maybe I say that because I don’t like dressing. (Shh! Don’t tell anyone!)

  6. Speaking of the moon, did you read the articles out recently about using lunar lava tubes as places for permanent bases?

    Have a great Thanksgiving!

    1. I think I’ll do that next year - this year I was already annoyed at the delay before eating (family photo, me reading a poem, me leading a prayer - I was tire of hearing myself talk & ready to dive into the corn pudding!).

  8. I looked at the moon yesterday and thought of Dr. M. Sort of in the same way people look at chocolate and think of me.
