Write any poetry that talks about 10 things you are thankful for, this week.
We’re thankful when things go our way. We’re also thankful to see mis-steps when things are against us, because when there are lousy times, we will feel more gratified, in future, for the good times. Does this make sense?
My acrostic poem expresses my Ten Things for my thanks.
T – for the ten things I’ve taken for granted like a house, food, transport, clothes, shoes, my friends, some work, church, books, drawing. I only started reading recently. Someone in my family passes me books.
E – for everything good I received this week. For foreshadowing to warn of a dark cloud.
N – for nuts; edible nuts, not the nutty kind.
T – for tangerines.
H – hen’s eggs; a quick source of protein.
I – ice lollies; popsicles.
N – for new ideas.
G – for good days..
S – for serenity whenever I need it.
! – gracious bloggers whose kind comments are appreciated.

You can write your own poetry to express your ten things for thanks.

I love this poetry comic! I may illustrate my haiku with still pics, to make them poetry comics.

loved the acrostic/TToT*
also enjoyed the animated/cartoon/illustrated version of the Annabel Lee
You make a good point in your introduction: “…thankful to see mis-steps when things are against us, because when there are lousy times, we will feel more gratified for the good times.”
*one of the things that, imo, has kept people joining in on our weekly celebration of gratitude is that creativity in presentation is valued (rather than conformity to one form)… very cool
What a fun way to count your blessings!
Thanks, Clark. 🙂
Thank you, Mimi. 🙂
Loved the acrostic, Cai – great to see someone give thanks in a different form! Some nuts make life more interesting but not the orange variety…
