****************
Saving Christmas...
Many blessings she has granted over the
Years, this woman is my true light...
You want to hear of an African story?
...My story I mean...
There’s a lot of places I thought I’d
see before I ever saw this year...
ah, ah, ah. . .
Atishoo...
That misty dawn the cold did cling so wet
On rising banks beside the barren trees...
A twinkle in the dead of night
caused light through my bedroom drape...
left as
a gift...
.
expectation waits...
I knew this was what I wanted,
Though your heart seems broken...
A cork pops, giving a surprising scare,
As champagne spews high into the night air...
. . . and so it happened,
a newest family member...
