’twas new year’s eve at the lake house
and two of our
fellow celebratory foot soldiers
and their loyal dog were down
though they made a miraculous comeback
returning to the fray for the midnight hour
and it was something to behold.

is it one of the hottest days of summer?
is it time for our annual
christmas in july/august celebration?
absolutely.
with long-time friends
turkey dinner
wine
christmas cookies
stories
and
odds and ends re-gifts to each other
that we’re highly likely
to re-gift to someone else at a later date
no reason to keep the joy of giving all to ourselves.
