Reflective times
impending
the slowing down
we long for
Few days left to Xmas
we rush our shopping
for the stuff we believe in –
do we care for yet more?
Let’s break habits
relax before the season starts
enjoy each other
and the lights
Let’s just linger
not dwell in the window
of the instant purchasing pleasure
that simply blights
Sharing times
arriving
a break from the frantic
to the spell we crave
