Family traditions, we must always carry on
Gathered together, at the table, we pray
For the bountiful life we are so thankful for
Not just on Thanksgiving, but every day

She recalls the past, so very clearly
Dates and times on which they’d occur
Memories are all she has, kept close
But this day, with me, is simply a blur
She laughs, about times, of long ago
Recalls moments, when life was hard
Until reality greets her, once again
And quickly, she puts up her guard
Refusing to let go, of all she holds dear
Oh, how she wants these moments to last
But I watch, as the days slip by, quicker now
As she stares, out the windows, of the past

My lunar orb, dear precious moon
Please shed your light, surround me
In the coldest heart, of the ebon sky
It’s your warmth, I need around me

This week, Colleen has given us the words Celebrate and Number as our challenge. Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!
Written as an Etheree, I chose Estimate and Ritual.
One
Seemly
Estimates
A timely span
On this living Earth
Unknowing where it ends
They often choose to reflect
Growing old, another birthday
With constant reminders from others
Who find the ritual more important
