When I saw you my eyes were caught fore'er,
My heartbeat halted from there on to race
On marathon to win your love and grace,
The gift of life I found, unique and rare.
This jolly Christmas night I take a knee
To our new start together hand-in-hand,
Toward the blue horizons to expand
As two in one, "Will you please marry me!?"
All gifts for you, my precious wife-to-be,
I saved throughout my life that led to you,
And from now on unwrap them, one by one.
Most cherished gift that you bestowed one me:
My heart awoke and that instance I knew
You won it, it's unwrapped, I am your man.

Beneath the tall and sparkling Christmas Tree,
are presents wrapped and stacked in neat array-
a picture-perfect holiday bouquet,
with graceful boughs outstretching equally.
Yet, here among the gifts, placed centrally,
the largest one stands out in full display-
red satin bow on gold, as if to say,
as your best gift, I'm luring you to me.
And soon, she tiptoes down the spiral stair-
beholds the lovely tree this Christmas morn.
So quick it's seen, held captive by her eyes!
To it, she walks directly- unaware
inside she'll find her treasure, newly born!
The kitten is her secret-wish surprise!

Contest: Open Me First
Sponsor: Craig Cornish
Form: Italian Sonnet
Rhyme Scheme: abbaabba cdecde
The soft warm shades of twinkle lights,
reflects, muted, from love worn orbs.
Serenity it does afford,
to all our weary souls and hearts.
Each decoration is a part,
to the testament of years rewards.
They glow richer, as love absorbs.
Sweet memories, they do impart.
Paper, glitter, from a child's hand.
Delicate hand blown glass Angels.
Beneath a star that rests above,
popcorn and cranberry garlands,
tiny hand painted, silver bells.
Thirty Five years of Christmas love.
