A surprise
at sunrise
under the pillow
turns my mood mellow
It’s been a long time
celebrations and wine
replaced the small joys
of candy and toys
Santa in my dreams
Ho, ho, ho… he beams
Find me in your heart
decorating is an art
hopes in strings of light
cottony warmth just right
shining dolls and balls
A child’s voice recalls
A spirit left behind
A time to be kind
I hug my daughter tight
The tiny gift just right…

Perfect gift. Happy new year!!!!
