Mistletoe

And what is in a bland year that a great moment could not obliterate… the value of a lifetime without a season of proximity shared…? as one thimble of seawater passed between us can be a voyage toward wondrous eternity when hearts are righted and divine charting full sail at the steer -- ? We talk of the toast into tomorrow while letting the dear drip pour away limiting prayer to future morning cadence giving not enough deference to Loving Presence attended… Kiss me!
