Presence

Presence

People scurrying to and fro

hunting for perfect selections

frenzied paces like rabid rats

brimming with anxiety

blood PuMpInG, minds racing

rushing home to complete the mission.

Treasures now clothed in pristine wrappings

waiting with baited breath

wondering about their choices 

when the ultimate gift

comes unwrapped...

presence.

Valuable lessons must have been learnt from life to write a poem with as powerful a message as this has ! To spend time together on special occasions means everything !!

Lovely control of word and phrase in this truly worthwhile read.

All the best to you !  :)

Thanks Richard!  Just revised the poem at the end and like it better now.  We are trying to teach our girls about homemade things instead of always buying and my hubby and I set an expectation long ago of not having to give gifts for all of the occasions...  So much less stress!  Always appreciate your support!*!*!
