Thanksgiving
Out in the yard, a squirrel goes scampering to gather manna for the Winter coming, as time allows a quick, concordant drumming- the last of Autumn's leaves awhirl and blowing... and songbirds fortify their nests in knowing the colder season brings a cozy humming; yet thankful tweets ring midst the branches strumming before first snowfall, starkly white and glowing. Inside my house, the Lord makes me aware of blessings held and manna yet to share upon Thanksgiving, which is every day; I'm thankful to Him that He guides the way enlightening the soul He knows of me with love from Him and love of family.
(a Petrarchan sonnet) |
