Gobble Gobble

Terrifying season
Uncertainty sets in
Restless for a reason
Knowledgeable heart spins
Enchantment or treason
Yearly traditions win

Thanksgiving soon passes
Instant peaceful relief
Miracle surpasses
Exhale fears and grief

  1. look at the blue face
    do we ever get that close
    and the feathers for a crown
    as peacocks have
    too
    this is an impressive bird
    no wonder Franklin wanted it
    rather than eagles
    for a nation’s emblem

    Well-crafted acrostic, Grace! I had to respond in verse.
