Christmas Presence

*

We

all know

 someone who 

  can fix that.   

 They are present 

and see us. They listen.

 They take a walk in our shoes. 

And they sure smile—a lot.

 They don’t say we’re wrong or bother

to judge. They make it easy to hear them, too.

  And they’re so chill, we never have to agree.

But we always get to trust. And we always get things fixed.

And the truth is, we always know who that someone might be.

And we can

leave that

someone

under our tree. 

Merry, Merry.
