o tannenbaum – December 22

12.22

warm lights, tree decor,

ornaments with names

of children and hopes

fulfilled.

 

fifteen years, long term,

anniversary, child born,

power ranger orb, etched

silver cradles.

 

birth of the One matching

births of our own. family

story evoked  and shared

here.

 

we hold hands and gaze

with wonder at what has

happened, thankful for

the now.
