that be idle on
half dreamy air
at evenings rise and wonder
near hearts gather
kin and kisses
sweetness not grown cold
gather and share
in touched whispers
vast spread of turkey trimmings
indulge in wine and pudding
near to unbroken
given to each other
This is a lovely poem. Feel the warmth.

You did manage to evoke that atmosphere during a breaking of bread. Excellent work, and very subtle with the acrostic, which I respect lot.
