A snapshot of what is missed.

Home For Christmas

Red berries adorn bare limbs
of my childhood home.
It's Christmastime!
Family gathers like
grey geese to frozen pond.
Silver snow ushers
bright holiday sweaters
to green wreaths door.
Windows glow outward
gold light frames
smiling faces.
Family, friends
I will miss
because I won't be
home for Christmas.
