Notes About The Poem

We're in the Holidays now! Woo hoo!


 

Almost

Thanksgiving is almost here,
annoying school bells have stopped ringing.
Turkeys are huddling, out of sight,
and the garbage men are singing.

We’re beginning to prep side dishes,
slicing, dicing, mashing, peeling,
and I’m smiling ‘cause I feel myself
swept up in holiday feelings.

I hope that Macys is ready
for their seasonal parade.
We’ll be watching as we start to cook
the banquet that we’ve made.

I’m wishing everyone plenty,
as we shelter in our homes.
On this tame 2020 holiday,
that we’re spending home alone.

This holiday season will be like none I have ever experienced but then this whole year has been a bit strange. Nevertheless, I hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Anais.
