Snow on the porch
Wet boots on the floor
Greetings and hugs by the screen
Tables are set
The places are claimed
Choices of beverage abound
Turkey’s been carved
The prayers are all prayed
Relatives each have been served
Coins have been tossed
Tall tales are retold
Loved ones not present are missed
Laughter and tears
Some secrets revealed
Bonds tighten that once were frayed
Time whizzes by
Devoid of the world
Antics of children take stage
Boots now are dry
Coats are all cozy
Cheeks rosey bright with good cheer
Farewells and hugs
Kitchen door closes
It’s a Wonderful Day of the year
