Merry Christmas to You and Your Family!
when I was a girl
it was only minutes to
drive to Grandma’s house
.
now I have a girl -
planes, trains and automobiles
is the way it works
.
from Pennsylvania
now grandma’s in Florida
sister lives down south
.
we live out our dreams
up north in New Hampshire but
something is missing
.
still we are happy
to raise our girl amongst trees
ocean, farms and fields
.
Whatever form your
family takes I wish you
a Merry Christmas!
