The Tenth Day of Poetry

Holiday Card Postmarked from Holland

A canal, from one who’s crossed the crowded ice.

A windmill, from one who’s felt the chill nearby.

Some birds, from one who’s heard their winter cries.

A Kerstdagen greeting without a single lie

for me to believe in.

I love it --beautiful simply, I can see the windmills and canals of Holland in these few words ---

Merry Christmas --

Thank you for this, and the whole site. Since I started writing myself, I also have been able to appreciate the works of others as well. I am going to link here so those that come by mine can also visit here.
