Traditions

I’m not at all religious

But when holidays roll ‘round,

I follow the traditions

To which I have long been bound.

 

I cook and bake the recipes

Passed down from year to year

And use my nicest dishes

To improve the atmosphere.

 

I even wear a skirt, although

My husband wouldn’t care

If I plopped down at the table

In a tee and underwear.

 

The rituals and customs

That I learned of long ago

Don’t reflect beliefs, but rather

A connection to bestow.
