The Meal of the Day
It’s a quiet morning
The ceiling fan in the screened-in porch was left on
Far off a tractor is mowing
Farther off Red Angus cows are lowing
The dinner under the fan was with a dear friend —
a lasagna of butternut squash, black beans, corn, green salsa,
With piped-in family,
Gold floral napkins,
And squeezed-through Doodle —
Was cherished
And the hearty leftovers
Are lunch.
