November #12

We raise our glasses,
red wine full,
to the ceiling light,
chinking them together as we praise
the glory of being ourselves.
To friends, to family, to thanks,
to world peace, panda bears, love.
To overeating, overdrinking,
family stress and football games,
here's to Americana.
Here's to us, we say,
full of ourselves as well as turkey,
and we down our glasses in fell single sips.
