Tables Set for Ghosts
In memory of those who once were
We set the tables hoping everyone will show
The memories of pasts discussed in the flow
Wishing that you hadn’t left
The past behind
This thanksgiving will be different
They’ll never be the same
Leaving that place set open
In memory of those who once sat around the table this day
