PERSPECTIVE WITH WINGS finding a clearing tossing bangles and sparkles as angel looks on until the tree shakes them off regifting clutter to floor the angel doll’s last to flutter from the ceiling exhausted she rests laid out flat under the tree things look solemn down under the mistress kisses the angel’s forehead and wings and gently places her at the top of the box bids her goodbye ‘til next year dreams of December the seasonal doll blushing memories of smiles of Jacobian ladders cherry faces lifted high 12/12/2018 Biblical account of Jacob’s dream shows angels ascending and descending from heaven to earth and back again. 12/12/2018

Beautifully linking the tree with the reason. Angels and stars should be most prominently displayed at Christmas time. It makes sense. Sweetly written, Kim.
