I've been thinking of Christmas,
as I look around the living room,
at all the decorations, people throughout my life,
have given me, and what each one means.
Those gifts from people I used to work with,
gifts from parents whose children I once took care of,
gifts from my friends,
that they bought or made for me.
I look at the Christmas ornament from my dad,
the year of the accident.
Gifts from him are few, and far between.
I look at the wooden bear ornaments, my mom painted. I remember when my guy hung them from our lace curtains, in our bedroom, when I was sick in bed.
That's my idea of romance.
He knows how to cheer me up.
He still surprises me.
He still makes me smile.
