Memories of another Christmas

The smiles, laughter, excitement

Remnants of life experiences

Lie amongst the wrappings

Special moments saved

Stored away

In our hearts

Will bring

Joy

Pretty posy path

Leading to the flower shop

Bouquets of color

Line the florist’s shelves

Music fills the air

Unique treasures abound

Delighting senses

I’m lost in a wonderland

Filled wifh creativity

#NaPoWriMo–Day 12–Prompt: Index Poem
This Index Poem was inspired by “Silver Boxes” a book written by Florence Littauer.

End of Christmas Day--Tanka — Original Poetry and Photograph by Leona J. Atkinson ©2015

At the end of Christmas Day, after all the excitement is over, the presents are opened, the wrappings are gathered up and thrown away, I am glad that the love of family remains. Peace on Earth—Goodwill to Men. Christmas Blessings to all.
