Poetry: Acrostics about Thanksgiving

by Jenny Gary

Created on: November 07, 2010

THANKSGIVING


Time slips away at a maddening pace,

Homes are riddled with fear.

Angry at the world, wishing for grace,

No goodness in sight here.

Kindness is lacking, patience is gone,

Self-control doesn’t exist.

Gaiety can’t leave its mark upon even

Innocents. We must not resist

Vibrant pictures of love, a sacrificed lamb

Instead of my place on that tree.

Not counting the cost, He laid out His plan

Giving all He had for me.
