RESPITE
A great day was yesterday,
Fun from dawn through night,
Our endurance did fray,
And slept we tight.Today the women did,
Women things as women oft do,
For this old man things slid,
As they often do.Sitting reading at the table,
Keeping watch on the outer scene,
The mists of morn got a noontime label,
And the sun lit the green.
No breeze today,
The conjuring pine,
Left his motions lay,
And that was fine.A day of rest,
For me and she,
On the morrow preps for the day,
Of Thanksgiving, oh me,
Guess on a diet I'll stay,
More for me that way.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL

I love your tradition of Thanksgiving, Doug! I wish we celebrated that in my country. I even like the sound of the term, "Thanksgiving".
The sun lits the green that become golden .
Enjoy the fairytale of Nature, Doug and celebrate the day .
In friendship

I'm on a diet too. Guess I'll have to eat quality not quantity.
Hope your week is a good one and full of things to be thankful for.
Are you flying Doug? So wish we could have a cup of coffee. Judi
