My Christmas Thaw
I am thawing out
The winter freeze melts like butter
From the heart
With purpose poised and sung hard
From the mettle of my thoughts
Resltess as they are
This thick impassioned tar
Out spouts the plans and desires
Out grows the forbearers of time
Out and threaded, lived and tethered.
Find and feed and fall for others.
On this blistered, frigid Christmas,
Move and make your wishes welt
As worn and weary as they are.
Restless as they are
Make loose the mind's murky tar.
And start a new fire for all to see.
Make it burn bright into the night
Against the maple of the trees,
Against the faces of belief.
