Christmas Light

Stillness.

The streets are quiet

For a change

The sky is showing through

And some stars 

And a sliver of moon.

Sharp outline of the mountains

Backlit with peach, yellows and pinks

Frost on the grass

Crunching softly underfoot

Cold cheeks and 

Warm coat pockets.

The trees glow with soft joy Drinking in this sweet light A particular shade of blue.

Happy thoughts and inspirations

Hang above 

To drink in.

Bless us 

every 

one.
