Once upon a December




Is there anything about it 

not to love?

The music of the Vienna Boy's choir ~

or joy filled faces as we open our gifts 

on Christmas morning?

The spiced filled kitchen 

when the Christmas cake is in the oven?

The things the heart once knew?

Memories dancing around like loved and lost angels.

Bright hope in dark rooms.

Movies, 

one by one

that create salty tears 

at the back of my eyes

and yet explode like a million twinkle lights

in my heart.

It's a wonderful life.

Elf.

Miracle on 34th Street.

How the Church bell 

across the field of hope

never sounds sweeter 

than when it peals in 

beginning of Christmas Day?

Once

upon


December

Pretty misty stars

A sound of birds singing

 It's early.  And almost a year since I was here. I hear a sound of birds singing  outside my window and a dog barking down the street. ...
