Sunshine or snowflakes
Sand in between my toes
Ice on my nose
Equator changes
December ranges
Long Island to this Big Island
Squirrels and Blue Jays
Magpies and Yankees
Kookas guffaw and crocs snap
Nature defines
Always
My ancestors left footprints in the snow
While country for me is a mixed bag
Where I hang my hat
Weather does not define the feeling of love
Heart and soul connected
No matter if we commune and hug on the day
Or if my thoughts conjure you up
It is like you are with me
Always
You, my friends, my family, my children
With me today
Everyday
Festive seasons bring up memories of gatherings
Close my eyes and I find you all there
Past and present
Never forgotten
Part of me
Part of you
Enjoy yourself….it’s later than you think. xx
