X for X-traordinary Christmases

by Mama Baer

____________________

Craving homemade buttermints and fudge
House decked and cozy
Reciting Dad’s Christmas stories
Inclined to stay in
Straightest strings of lights on eaves
Trips to neighbors, stealth-style
Mom’s touch everywhere
Anticipating the village and train
Searching for perfect gifts
Enjoying time together
Star atop flagpole

My parents really put their heart and soul into Christmastime. Dad was a gifted writer and composed a new Christmas story each year. He still had the boyhood train set he received circa 1945, and Mom collected Christmas villages. It was magical.
