Strings and Strands


Strings and Strands                                               Voxpoetica Prompt 12-31-2011

I have been caught up in the strings
Tangled like a marionette
Someone else always knowing
Which ones to tug or pull on for my heart
Leaving strands of color swirling in my sight

Was it this Christmas or last
Where all the tree lights changed to only white

Christmas’s past, was filled with colored lights
And strands of popcorn, beads of multi colors
When the tree was finally trimmed and plugged in

The entire world tasted
The rainbows of Christmas
And kissed in New Year’s
          With peppermint breathe
