It is Christmas time again
and as I hang your ornament on the tree,
my heart still flutters
for a moment caught in a memory.
Of times long past
of a smile, a wink, a face
of warmth and love
A special time and place.
I force my mind to return
back to trimming my tree
I reach for the next ornament
and wait for the next memory....
