putting away laundry like any other day
clean and white

last minute wrapping
and last minute shopping


and first time at helping

to create magic
out of dark old boxes

that already hold new traditions




there's always candles

and way more than just seven fishes!?!?

an added "attic Christmas"


and then what we do every year

and whatever that feeling is
that you hope for as you hustle and bustle
and prepare for another Christmas again this year
the perfect feeling that 'is Christmas'
that somehow I feel I might miss this year
I finally....... feel
in an unfamiliar church
visited by us this very first time
so we might be together
this Christmas eve night
as the first notes of
"Oh come, all ye faithful"
strain thru an old organ

being played in stocking feet with a hole in the heel
