The Christmas Card
Soft music playing
in the background,
My address book,
The one that
throughout the year,
Is updated,
With pen and
pencil scrawls,
Every wedding,
Every moving (some
are happy; some are harder),
Every new school
of higher learning,
Every birth,
Every death,
And, at Christmas,
We sit down with
it all,
It is cathartic,
More than I care
to imagine,
Every year,
Computers,
Clouds,
Catch it all, yet,
Cards are sent to many yet,
To fam’ly; friends
you won’t forget!
