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.
