JM:
Good morning, Toby!
It’s almost Thanksgiving Day
What thanks do you have?
Toby:
Those cans of cat food
Make a blissful retirement
What about your thanks?
JM:
Hmmmm, where do I start?
Family, friends, food, and shelter
Are atop my list
Toby:
Let me see…oh yes
Fish, chicken, turkey, liver
Also mice and rats
JM:
Arrgh, oh dear, oh dear
I forgot your hunting days
At the Bolding farm…
Toby:
…I ran wild with dogs
While you and society
Dealt with worldly cracks
JM:
Ah, those worldly days
Now you are a retiree
Do I hear purring?
Toby:
I am thankful for
rescues atop that farm tree
two times, happily
JM:
Me too, my old friend
for the wintertime kindness
those arborists gave
Toby:
Kindness wins the day
loner me or social you
feels its warm blessings
JM & Toby:
Thank you!
