Fine

Fine

I’m doing just fine
I wake up each day; I’m living, breathing
I’m doing just fine
sometimes I let myself think of the times
we still talked, and I give in to grieving
smile on my face, it’s me I’m deceiving
I’m doing just fine

December Dodoitsu #27

what need have I for flowers,
fancy gifts or dinners out,
they’re just things, silly, really,
and they are not you

yet our quick reply to who
refers more to what we do
than to who we are

December Dodoitsu #23-24-25 (Holiday Edition)

‘Tis the Season

hearths ablaze, Yule log crackling
chestnuts popping, caroling,
wassail in a kettle simmering
magic in the air

morning star, fairest mother,
child suckling near her heart,
hope, glad tidings, joy abound
this time, every year

silent night in Luna’s keep
rhythmic laboring waves of love
light’s reflection darkness quelled
peace on earth, go tell
