turkey done too fast
who knew grills cook faster yet
ham that oozes juice

potatoes mashed light
gravy a bit too greasy
clings to everything

yams sweet from oven
golden marshmallows crunch ooze
seconds, no thirds… fourths

buns that cheated warm
frozen for weeks but risen
perfection for a change

pies and salads add
but crown dinner with laughter
pink fluffy stuff of course
