He stands, regal, majestic,
Beneath the holly tree,
Bathed in a circle of light, as if he’s waiting
For whatever joys and challenges
The holidays may bring —
But there I go, projecting again,
Having awakened early, my mind circling
Round that endless list of holiday to-dos.
I need to follow his example:
Stop a minute, take a breath,
And revel in the beauty that surrounds me.
