Who is the Turkey?

As daughters
we watch our mothers
with heed

Watching them prepare
Thanksgiving dinner
with effortless care.

As women
we mimic their efforts
with the best intentions

only to find
we’ve over looked
some small detail.

How do you wash a turkey?

Who would have thought
that when called upon
Mothers would advise
with smiling eyes

and send us on our
merry way …

to find Turkey Soap!

Don't tell my wife, but I bought Doggy Soap - couldn't find any Turkey Soap, but the dogs do need a bath for Thanksgiving!

I hope you found that Turkey Soap, Tracey - and Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
