New poem: "Turkey Day in Georgian Bay"

 

Turkey Day in Georgian Bay

 

Yesterday was turkey day in Georgian

Bay, a day of thanks for life’s goodness

and pleasure, and despite all the misery

of this pernicious virus that’s brought

the world to a sudden pause, it’s given

us time to reflect on where we’ve come;

and when I snuck down to the refrigerator

in the middle of the night for my favorite

sandwich of turkey goodness, I thanked

the love of my life for the consummate

pleasure of being my wife.
