Tonight's Poet Corner: Early Celebration
Early Celebration by Belinda Roddie The day before Thanksgiving, we sat around a table with a broken leaf, devouring the typical staples of the holiday, enjoying the family vibe and the camaraderie. The day before Thanksgiving, we heard retail horror tales, got to dance to jazz and the Beatles, and heated up our bones with both sustenance and booze. The day before Thanksgiving, I remembered why I love you, and you remembered why you love me, and we settled down in front of the fire with our tired heads brimming with more stories.
