and thanks for being in a the shape of a mitten

so i can always show where i’m from

or where i’m going

or where i got lost

and thanks for both peninsulas

i love both of you

and thanks for being surrounded by the 5 great lakes so i never go thirsty

and for being so close to canada so i can travel internationally

i know you’ve had some rough years

but you look pretty good for your age

at least to me.
