December 24
Adam Marsland

Button up -- weatherman gave warning

Hurry back I'll have lots to tell

Then nestle in, you can stay 'til morning

Find a warm place to dwell

Maybe I'll miss the ground

Once these heady winds have shifted

When I'm taking the long way down

To where I was from where I've drifted

Lock the door, light the tree

Celebrate our bravery

And the presents yet to open

Draw close, find a kiss

Something good may come from this

Not to kill a metaphor

But it's December 24

Coffee shop down the street from my house

You saw the same shapes that I did

Spilling sugar on the table laughing

Is this what God forbid?

Maybe we'll miss the ground

Once these heady winds have shifted

When we're taking the long way down

To where we'll fall from where we're lifted

A new place...it made sense

The compass reorients

A truer north that lay within me

Don't lie, don't deny

If you want to so do I

There are new poles to explore

'Cause it's December 24

I don't want to leave this room

The daylight penetrates too soon

Dulling the edges of this moment

There may be penalties to pay

After the veils fall away

At the cheerful bright of day

Leave the wrappers where they lay –

What will they say?

Just words, sticks and stones

Embrace to face what was unknown

with all the courage you can muster

Come snow, come sun

I guess there's someone for everyone

Not to kill a metaphor..it's December 24
