(Part 2 of 2)
Old window glass
runs wet-rain tears reflection flag-plays
In kitchen-warm
with Grandpa close in kiddo’s youth-days
Drafty-cold the
rooms save Granny’s toasty warm kitchen
Pleasant-aromas
sweet as when in summer the boy is pitchin’
At the berg’s
June-parade drum-beats a patriotic tune
The boy admires
pretty girls with plans to kiss ’em soon
In the
yonder-past ole wintertime to don the skates for ice
Stands guard the
flag for spring Morels and Red Ear sure nice
Whisper-soft Oh!
Rhythm-heart space-time
Cadenced
echo-beat tender emotion-rhyme
Mystic-magic
reverenced devotion-chime
Artesian-well of life-love adventure-prime
Dare ride
wild-wind unicorn exploit-sublime
Red!
White! Blue!
Witnessed sacred-nuptials love-true
Wed
loveliness-girl from childhood that he forever knew
Left spouse and
kids with Ole Glory solemn duty-call
Grand
“Hero-day”! Invincible-eternal! He’d never fall
Sweet memories
he held of all that had only so recent been
Summer-days!
Autumn-nights! Winter-ice! Springs then!
To taste the
cherry sweet upon Life-dessert favorite sundae
First cherished
breath-of-life portends a mortal gasp one day
Whisper-soft Oh!
Rhythm-heart space-time
Cadenced
echo-beat tender emotion-rhyme
Mystic-magic
reverenced devotion-chime
Artesian-well of life-love adventure-prime
Dare ride wild-wind

Day 81
Flocking a cedar
tree in white and decorating it
with blue lights
and blue ornaments for
Christmas one
year at Maeystown
Sure!
I confess! I’ve had my favorites; but, then again, “simple”-minded is easy to
please.
Our
very first Christmas tree, that is to say, after the “official” nuptials (we
had shared the enjoyment of a “mutual”-celebration tree for several years
before our marriage) had been vowed was a delightful little cedar tree,
hand-cut and erected in our rented mobile home. We flocked it bright white with
a spray can of winter “snow” decked its branches with shiny blue ornaments of
various sizes, tensiled it with silver strands of glitter-icicles and topped it
with a colorful pinnacle star-like feature. Ah! A grand spectacle for the
“little”-boy of the house Indeed!
When
we moved to Maeystown, we cut a tree from our farm and decorated it. If memory
serves, one was done in red and several in blue over the years; finally, I
decided that the myriad colored lights and ornaments from my long-ago youth was
more “Christmasee!” for children.
Every
day is one Supreme blessing-gift;
each event a wondrous adventure venue. Bring it!
The
“kid” in me which is me delights in
every blatant-nuance purposely celebrated! Amen!
Ah! Cookie Jar “Bright-shining lights” Sweet
Memories!
