Sipping Highlander Grogg

Sipping Highlander Grogg to the dregs of the press.
Life has slowed in China cup, the Christmas recess
is satisfying as gifts are unwrapped, surprises revealed.
   Headphones
      antique tapestry
         gift cards,
            games appealed,

and many more things, but it’s the smiles
coming from the groggy lips of the miles
it took to spend the loving length of holiday
   with family
      its cache
         gifts of this lifetime
            time with grandsons does pay.

Yup, those miles beget the smiles that you'll file at the forefront of the memory bank forever, Kim. Merry Xmas. ~ Gershon
