the past speaks
of salvation
within the fragrance
of evergreen
as ornaments
sparkle from
soft candlelight
and stockings
are warmed
with names
as stories of
friends and family
circle within
the shadows
of fond words
as we stand
under a bouquet
of mistletoe

Good write S.
wonderfully festive
I like your blend of melancholy and positivity
in this write, a true reflection
of how most of us are feeling this year
I truly believe, we owe it
to those, no longer by our side
to make the best
of experiences in life,
however fake or shallow that may seem
I think, if you asked those
who no longer, get a say or choice
more than likely, most
would agree...
(thanks for sharing
such a timely and festive write;
Hope you have a wonderful
festive season
and a peaceful New Year, dear poet)
