This time of year is full of wonderful goodies, symbols, images, and memories. Children’s anticipation grows at the thought of the big night. We pull out all manner of items to decorate for the holidays. Each and every item carries a memory along with it. We will hold each decoration or item and smile remembering the moment that made it precious. As I prepare for the pending holidays and visits from friends and family, I muse. Let me share my thoughts with you.
Starry Starry Night
by Susan P. Cooper
I ponder what I see.
Has the night been cold?
The snow is all around,
In this starry starry night
The glow is soft and present,
Lighting all that it touches.
The trees they do sparkle,
In this starry starry night.
The view is now changing,
At every turn I make.
I start to see things more clearly,
In this starry starry night.
The snow stops falling,
Making everything clear.
Then I shake it again
As the snow globe delights,
And the music plays Starry Starry Night.
I do hope you enjoyed my simple poem. I have always loved snow globes. They fascinated me as a child, and they still delight me as an adult.
I wish you the best of holidays. May they be filled with wonder and great memories.
Life’s journey continues…
