Perspective
When we were little,
our teachers would decorate
walls and windows with
pictures of horn-shaped baskets,
filled with fruit and vegetables
and talked about how early Americans
celebrated such abundance.
That seemed ho-hum to me.
But a basket filled with
cookies, cakes, candy bars,
puddings, peanut brittle,
chocolates, and apple pie,
now, that would definitely
be worth celebrating!
