a thought for thanksgiving

if winter comes
can spring be far behind—
well, far enough
I'll be spending the Thanksgiving weekend with family in eastern Massachusetts. To everyone who celebrates the holiday: Have a good one.

Thanks Patry.

a guilty thought:
will global warming bring
my heating bills down

anon: I try to think in as many directions as possible; on the other hand, I try to think as little as possible. That may sound like confusion; I suspect it's living.
