Christmas Cheer

Christmas Cheer

tough time of year to be single
hard to be split at a time like this
everywhere around is yuletide bliss
people arm in arm huddled against the chill
ah yes, I remember it still
steam on the windows, lights on the sill
fire crackling hot cider wine
holly, cedar, pine scent in the air
friends, family, goodies galore
sweet child giddy on the night before the day
when a dream comes true
toes curled warm, snuggling, cuddling
sweet treats and turkey, pies warm from the oven
the feel of family
an aura of familiarity
sensitivity, spirituality
communion, reunion, rebirth
a new start and memories
