Anticipation

Awaiting with glorious longing most
Natural and human I do not boast
The patience of saints instead
I posses an intolerance for the hours ahead
Counting the minutes twice over
In case I’ve counted wrong, moreover
Pacing around and around
And around again I’ve found
Tricks the time into stretching out
Increasing until I’m compelled to shout
Of the unfairness so I scream and vent
Not until the time is past can I rest content

Thanksgiving

for dVerse
An acrostic poem.

Together round a fragrant turkey
heaping a feast upon our plates
and laughing and smiling with those
numbered as our friends and family
knowing that safety and love
surrounds; for this give thanks.



Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
