A Thanksgiving Day

where we all had our say 

and we’re still speaking.

                                  JDG

Gloom of overcast

days can slowly seep into

unsuspecting hearts.

                                               JDG

Looking for the key

to happiness, she failed to

see its open door.

                                                   JDG

Sometimes I wonder

why I try. The sky doesn’t,

yet it holds so much.

                                        JDG

Hyperconnected

but strangely disconnected – 

modern paradox

                                                JDG

They’re counting on us,

those trees who’ve given so much,

not to let them down.

                                                              JDG

As Thursday slides toward

Friday, anticipation

grows – Fall Break is near.

                                               JDG

Ragweed, please don’t rag

on me and Goldenrod, could

you please spare the rod?

                                                    JDG

Everywhere I look,

within or without, what I

see depends on me.
