rain check

Thanksgiving Day rain, lone bird sings in woods

Siren calls in distance

Watch out! We’re coming through!

Everyone is staying home

Empty seats in the living room

Be safe, be healthy, be happy

Thanksgiving Day rain drips from trees

COVID canceled traditions

Family gatherings on Zoom

Family recipes homogenized and fortified

19th century dashes and pinches

Translated into the 21st century

Thanksgiving Day rain, football on TV

Two weeks of exercise

To lose these feasting pounds
