Stocking

it's just a Christmas stocking 
green with fluff around the top
the difference is the love I feel
your pet name for me across the top

hung by the mantel with all of the rest
displayed for friends and family to see
adding me to your holiday list
our first together with many more to come

as we check the names off as we buy
shopping together for the gifts we need
this promises to be the best Christmas yet
your name is at the top of my list
