Over the stillness
a silence greets our walk
alongside the snow
to your family,
the wind curiously absent
and no children
eager to build snowmen
or men walking their dogs,
a stillness greeting footsteps
that one sound
carrying us forward
binding us together in excitement,
that one continuous emotion
a love spreading us onward
across the snow
forwards never backwards

Grandad's Christmas Reverie
He thought
All I want is here
the tree that reaches the ceiling:
with the decorations the boy had helped hang
and the lights he could reach
to pull off

I hope they like my gifts
the presents beneath the low branches:
with the labels that the girls had turned over
and peeped at to see
which was theirs
He thought

The Westway's dark.
Please stay, don't fade away
Save us,
lone stars.

Merry Xmas to All
The feast of Yule returns again
With glad and merry times;
The bells are ringing out for you
Their joyous, cheery chimes.

PARTY
PARTY
It’s Xmas and it’s party time so let’s get down and do it,
your house is the place and your beer is for free as we come and chill out.
The music’s turned up and everyone is welcome to celebrate that festive spirit.
As the hours spin by and the beer flows the party games start,
it’s not charades or monopoly but strip poker and wife swapping as all inhibition...
