New Year’s Eve
The heat of the fire filled the room
Laughter mixed with little voices
Singing of problems 20 years their senior
The Pretty Pretty Princess we played put away
My aging joints splayed out on the floor
And yours lounging on the cushion of couch
I glance up and we meet eye to eye
Smiles adorning both our faces
I line up the corners of this moment
Screenshot it and crop
And tuck it gently into my heart
One thought on "New Year’s Eve"
