nutmeggy, appreciation, thanksgiving,
Form: Alliteration
Labors of the day complete
Greenery, reddery, goldery
Tinsling tabletop and tree
Fine china and linens, crystal and silver
Await the morrow's festivities
Aglow in the simple warmth of the Christ candle.
A light in the darkness
Gently illuminating nutmeggy, clovish, sage-scented air
Highlighting crisp echoes of rustling wrapping paper
Recently stored with care 'til next year.
In the quiet
in the hush
the light shines
foolish
idealistic
flickering
unwavering
inspiring
hope..
and once in a while a glimmer of faith
in the power of goodness
compassion and
justice
and belief that they ultimately prevail.
