PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Yesterday we packed away our Christmas decorations…

delicately packing our old ornaments with the new.

And as we closed the lids on the boxes

we packed away our memories too.

Its one of the many things we love about Christmas…

part of what Christmas is all about…

How, when we open our boxes of decorations,

the memories come spilling out.

Memories of Christmases past

Memories we hope will never end…

Memories of times and pets and food and places…

Memories of family and friends.

Because creating memories is what makes Christmas special

And so, when we bid each Christmas adieu,

We delicately pack away

our old memories with the new..

Where they will rest together safe and secure

without a care…without a fear…

until we open up the boxes

and unpack them all again…

next year.
