it’s whatever it is that hasn’t been said
it’s the look that was missed
that expressed what was meant
it’s what you were thinking
after you walked out
and the silence that followed
draped in undeniable clout
lives weave a pattern
underneath a visible shroud
don’t hesitate to notice
don’t ever forget
it’s not what we think
it’s what needs to be said

Merry Christmas
how can we not?
I will merry Christmas
and you should, too
dancing round and round
in a frenzy
overjoyed
toys unimagined
placed in our hands
things undeserved
but given nonetheless
by givers richly blessed
we hardly could have guessed
forget about all the rest
this is truly the best
Christmas
as it should be
merry Christmas for me
even more merry Christmas
to you
