Poem "The Gift" originally written in 1997
Christmas morning
Gifts to unwrap
Sealed ever so tightly
Husband watches as
Fingers toy with wrapping
Gold Bracelet
How lovely!
A kiss
Exchanged between two lovers.
Night rolls in
Christmas dinner
Already eaten
Family gone home
Couple sits by roaring fire
Stars in eyes
As the two unite
The gift of love
A child on the way.
