It's Saturday afternoon
and Rosie's going to a party!
Every Labor Day weekend,
we all get together and have a neighborhood pig pickin'.
Although no pig was to be had this year,
our gracious host, Fernando, grilled hot dogs and hamburgers
and everyone brought a covered dish.
Understandably our crowd was a bit smaller this year,
but I think I speak for all when I say
that we all needed this.
And needed it in a big way.
We've all been cleaning up and throwing out.
(Apparently there are are lot of hoarders on this street.)
We're exhausted, both physically and emotionally
and dazed.
We all needed this annual event
to bring some semblance of normalcy
into what we have been experiencing.
Welcome to the party.
