Poetry Corner with Ivy and Friends: Special THANKFUL Edition

Welcome! 

As we begin this holiday season with Thanksgiving, I wanted to bring you all together so that we can get to know one another through the Thankfulness we have in our lives. 

During Thanksgiving, my family always has a tradition to go around the table and share what we are Thankful for. Since we all can't travel around the world in one night, I thought this would be our Poetry table of Thanks. 

Enjoy! 

POETRY CHALLENGE

What are you THANKFUL for? Is the question that must me answered. 

The poets are asked to submit an Acrostic poem using the first letters of the word THANKFUL to express the answer to the question. Each letter will represent the beginning of the word used in that particular line of the poem.
