12 Days Before Christmas
shining moment
bright angel
light shimmering
a halo on your hair
I am forever
blessed by this
visitation
baubles dance
on our tipsy tree
we sway too
on a Bing Crosby tune
slightly out of step
but never minding
your heartbeat
is all I hear
time pauses
holding my hand
you wonder
what gift you can give
so filled, voice
stopped by tears
this is the gift
this is all, Love,
that I could want
