Christmas Poem

Merry Christmas Everyone - 

In this tough and tremulous year, I hope this day fills you with comfort and that you are witness to the love of the earth and the people surrounding you. Here's a short little winter poem I wrote, inspired by this gorgeous picture (plus a few others). 

I love you all 💙 

~*~


~*~ 

The owl wrote moonlight upon her skin

 His feathers speaking secrets to the fallen snow 


The girl laughed, setting free the stars so they might  

Twinkle down through the cold, sharp night


To meet the trees …. 

 
They danced these trees and these December stars 

With joyful ease and hopeful wonder


While far away all children slept

Their dreams were silver and gold and magic 


And when at last, the trembling dawn arose 

The owl and stars and girl did slumber


While the trees content and happy with love

Guarded the earth for one day more…
