A Christmas Remembered

A Christmas Remembered A winter’s morn; the earth is still. Leaves and grass gleam virgin white as vapours shroud the distant hill. Birds forage in field and wood where the pond is steel. The sharpened air, a whetted knife, reveals to me my lover’s breath. God – I see her very life! We spread our pence beneath the tree, but love is all the gift we need, and love is free.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
