Thanksgiving
Thanks for the sweet potatoes and yams—
(their similarity makes one puzzle before the stand)
with their pale yellow and purple red skins.
Thanks for the honey crisp apples—
its juicy and crispy appeal, in each
crunchy bite. Thanks for the youtube—
the three steps of how-tos—the eight essential
dishes (even the total first can follow). Thanks
for freshening our memory of friends.
Thanks for the radio programs for advice—
when the big bird is still half frozen—
when the crust is off the pumpkin pie
and how to cook a turkey of Chinese style.
Thanks for the oven, the roasting pans, the masher,
the tongs and forks neglected with dust
Thanks for coming home, girls—
for sitting at the table, the aroma hover
over our smiles—the gentle snow—tonight.
