Turquoise of December
poem - Mikeydred's December Unofficial Challenge
Thirty-one days in December. Is there something that I should remember?
Earlier sunsets after a day of rain need not make us want to complain.
Windstorms and blizzards may knock out the power, and then we can huddle and enjoy a candlelit hour.
My mind wanders to gemstone sparkles before a fire. Is December’s birthstone your desire?
Quiet your mind, rest at ease, for December is the month of peace.
Absorb the hush of a December eve, in this month where we believe. Is that what's to remember? December's birthstone, turquoise, shimmers in splendor.
