With the family thanksgiving celebration harvested
I just sat there absorbing the warm enticing glow.
Huge pine trunks muscled onto the burn pile mirroring memories.
The golf cart also resting in deep thought
obviously pondering it’s very recent popularity.
My mind became entirely consumed
Counting blessings!
The men had taken charge of furnishing the meal
Early votes weren’t powerful enough to define majority
So we went to table loaded with KFC, Sub Sandwiches and Pizza
Complimented by soda pop, tater chips, rice crispy bars, etc.
Which were enjoyed by each and every soul including a very welcomed
exchange student from Germany.
Soon everyone here was eating somewhere surrounded by nature, warmed by the sun!
Suddenly I returned to now and realized the magic in the burn pile
Will blossom fine without me watching.
So I coaxed the golf cart to join me while getting the mail.
Going was fine but, coming back became an extreme challenge!
With it’s very last breath, the golf cart physically forced itself forward to the charger.
Then I inched my way up into the tree house to retrieve a KFC bone, a paper plate,
the elevator rope fastened to the lift bucket, which was half full of pinecones still smiling!
I came in the house, turned the computer on and,
I’m almost positive the home page boldly announced Giggle
Before it quickly turned to Google
Little fingers had been constantly stretching
It’s imagination and challenging it to compete in creativity.
I was secretly hoping the computer and I could reminisce a bit but,
Suddenly, I noticed the computer had gone to sleep!
Meanwhile, I'll keep coaxing my treadmill powered scooter uphill!
