Shhhhhhhhhhh! It's Almost Time!

The real reason for the season!

Christmas Eve - Peace

It's quiet now.

The celebration is finished.

The presents are opened.

The dinner is eaten.

The dishes are clean.

The children are sleeping.

The family has gone home.

Now,

in the quiet of the evening,

peace envelopes this space

flowing like a gentle hymn through the cold, night air

Touching and covering

this simple place

landing like quiet snowflakes on my tongue,

a host to be consumed

then integrated into my heart and soul.

Peace
