Lighting Up December

On trees

and houses

and strung across streets

Glowing

twinkling

and warming

hearts

Dancing on wires

over heads

Winding through neighborhoods

and windows

and bookshelves

and mantle places

Haphazardly

falling

and dropping

through the tree branches

through the railings

through the stairwells

Giving chase

on snowflakes and rain drops

breezes and fallen leaves

waves and fog cover

Shining and dripping

warm caresses

and warm glances

Soaring

and sailing

in dizzying

mystifying numbers

lovely

and beautiful

Spinning

warm thoughts

and warm feelings

in softer souls

A simple little

sign

a show

That the world goes on

That good things

live on

and continue as we grow

That the good in the world

hasn’t faded

hasn’t disappeared

Little lights

rainbows glistening

with bright white strings

to remind us all

the holidays are here again
