Thanksgiving

you standing on a chair
next to me at the counter

our four arms
in synch

our four hands
on the pie crust

fork between your little fingers
pressing birds' feet around

the edges that will contain
the farm-grown pumpkin

faces of the grannies
peeking over our shoulders

like visions

in a mother-daughter
country-western duet
