Happy Thanksgiving

Rise and shine
It’s the time that women excel
We mix and blend with the best of them
Arranging tables and timing pies
Fixing hors d’oeuvres
And smoothing feathers
And maybe ruffling a few on the way
But this is our time
We know without being told
How long to cook the turkey
And when to serve the wine
We were born for this
And in this
We shine


You men relax and put your feet up...

I love this poem and the sentiments that I know you say from the heart thought they may rile the ultra feminists in the crowd.

Thankyou Sue.

Unfortunately my wife and I have to work tomorrow. But I will imagine that my feet are up, and I will assuredly enjoy the aromas of wishful thinking.

Bless you ...

Happy Thanksgiving to you, too, Sue! I had to smile with your poem, though -- aren't women expected to excel at all times?? They are at my house ... lolol ... shine, shine, shine.
Loved this poem!
Love & a Thanksgiving hug,
CJ
