I hope you like it, and maybe write one of your own! It might be a little sad.

 

Waking up on Christmas morning

Brings me to a different time

The knowing that the coffee cake will be ready

Day of family, no matter what

It’s not really about anything

Just family and memory

Other days have been the same

Laying on my sister’s bed

Missing her when she’s gone

Savoring when she is here

Feeling love and knowing that

Some things can never change

The dog will lay upon the floor

We will gather at the table

Not to reminisce,

But to create joy anew.
