Christmas...

---

The tree, evergreen up on tippy toes,
reaches to the sky
stretching out all the kinks.

The star, the best saved for last,
smiles from it's lofty dwelling,
throwing beams to kiss those below.

The lights, strings of colored wonder,
place an etherial glow on the evergreen
changing moods with a swift magical wonder.

The ornament, remnant of a past-forgotten,
hangs in it's chosen place
trying to outdo the others for on-looker's attention.
The gifts, much too costly dollar-wise,
wait in their place for that special someone,
smiling with pleasure at their secret hidden within.

The season, peaceful and holy,
changes hate into love and war into peace.
Amazing in the fact that for one brief shining moment....
........no matter what......
all is well...CHRISTMAS!
