Once upon a time
Christmas chaos reigned.
Presents covered the floor
Under the glistening tree,
Turkey eaten,
Carols sung,
Family presents opened,
Midnight Mass.
Then Santa visited
And Christmas morn
Became a blur
Of laughter
Of fun
Of love.
Today, two unwrapped
Presents lay under the tree.
Lonely. Silent.
Waiting for the
Chaos that will
Never come.
