The Inkwell

from inkdrop – poetry, places and events

Ode to a bauble

#festive #christmas #decoration

Brilliantly coloured

and shiny as a pin

its been hibernating

from January to Now

Sleeping away

among the bubblewrap

with its brothers and sisters

awaiting the moment

Rainbows of Colour

ready to be released

to brighten up

a winters night

Sounds of Ruffling

in search of wrapping paper

and cards – a sign

its time to wake up

And as the old tree

descends the stairs

smiles of little ones

await the bauble and his brothers
