A Christmas Tree Full Of Memories
I carefully arrange my memories one by one
On every branch of my tall Christmas tree
Not resting until the entire job is done
Climbing up and down on both knees
I recall how my brother loved this time of year
As I place his pinecone on the branch near me
Gold decorated balls I hang over there
A gift from an old friend,I no longer see
My mothers’glass ornament I place nearby
Remembering how she cherished every year
I take a deep breath,trying not to cry
And thinking of her,utter a silent prayer
As I sit back to admire my decorared tree
Memories come flooding back of holidays past
Counting myself lucky to have been loved by three
Cherishing tender moments,knowing they will last!
