The Feast

Acorns abound on the ground

Baking bread makes a wondrous sound

Cooling cookies crackle and pop as we

Drop more doughnuts in oil

Eating our hearts out

Filling our stomachs with desire

Guzzling fermented grapes from the vine

Hunger entwines us all

Irreplaceable amongst us big and small

Juicy ripe cherries paired with

Kettle corn

Licking all from our lips

Mincing our meat pies with our eyes

Nash and gnawing away at

Our feast of the day

Plump plums dripping down our chest

Quivering over quesadillas builds quite the appetite

Rumbling rum raisen bread

Shhh, don’t let it all go to your

Thick thighs clip clap with happiness and

Utter delight at the sight of

Velvety soufflé.

Warming ourselves with mugs of

Xocolati as we

Yawn from it all, we

Zone out from eyes too big and stomachs too small

    Really liking the descriptions and use of alliteration! 😊 and an excellent final line! 😆 Well done on another great abecedarian.

  • The ABCs of virtually every Thanksgiving feast. (Though the specifics may vary.)
