ABC Poem About Thanksgiving Activities

I'm a 9th grader who likes to be creative and use my imagination. It's fun for me to write and read poems. My teacher referred me to this website to submit my poem for my end of the year project. I was very excited when I got the assignment. Things like this allow me to use my imagination, which is very enjoyable for me.

Thanksgiving

Apple pie is the
Best part of Thanksgiving.
Cooking food all
Day is fun with my family.
Even though there is a lot of
Food,
Giving is the most important part.
Helping
In the kitchen is also fun.
Joining together by the TV for the
Kickoff of the Thanksgiving football game.
Loving the game, family, and appetizers before the big
Meal.
Neighbors start arriving and new smells arrive with new people.
Oh, I haven't seen these
People in forever.
Quietly praying before we eat, as our heads
Rise and we
Start to eat
Turkey.
Unwinding from being stuffed, we clean up and start
Vacuuming.
When we were done, we all watch Charlie Brown.
X-actly a perfect ending of the day. Next
Year will be great I drowsily think,
Zzzzzzz as I peacefully fall asleep.

Love this poem about Thanksgiving by Brooke Applegate. She really is "spot on" with her description of what sounds like the perfect family Thanksgiving. She sounds like she is so involved with her family and this wonderful holiday from beginning to end, from preparing the feast, to giving thanks to the Lord for all, to enjoying the food and her family right down to the vacuuming part, which I am sure her mother likes also. Then the traditional Charlie Brown sounds like the perfect ending to a perfect family Thanksgiving. This young lady really understands this holiday and the meaning of it. I really enjoyed her poem.
