Thanksgiving Dinner The tree is becoming leafless or lonely feeling rather drab when it creates papershell pecans that become the topping on the pie. The Magnolia So radiant and sweet I close my eyes and wherever I am I go here again and again. I am home where the magnolia tree blooms in the South. I reach up and cup my hands like petals of the flower – toward the sun – and I am deeply rooted. Ice Tea So sweet is the glass filled to the rim with so little less than a thank you of ice tea.
