“Kitchen Mage”
Creating magic
Waving my spoon over pots
Ingredients become a feast
“Wheat Bread and Pumpkin Cakeâ€
Warm, spicy smells
Wafting from the oven.
The scent of fall.
“Thanksgiving Snow”
Deep gray and steely
The lake echoes the clouds;
Snow swirls and twirls down.
“Holiday (or the day after Thanksgiving)â€
A day to be a bum
Sprawled on the bed, watching TV
Guilt nowhere to be found.
