Christmas Eve
written by: C.X. Turner

We met at midnight
where the sparkling lights
looped ‘round sparse winter trees
reflecting love
in the moonlight
melting
on the lake
a new resolve
exploring deep within
the sound of a crisp reindeer bell
ringing in
the dawn
of a new unhurried Christmas
tradition
