Poets United chose stocking as our # 29 prompt. I first wanted to do Christmas stockings, but felt this is different magic for everyone. We have certain items that must be in our stockings; It is our ritual. Must be a tangerine or orange in the toe, some walnuts or pecans, in the shell, and a candy cane at the top.
In the magic middle, a small wrapped gift and there must be chocolate. And a new toothbrush. It wasn't working for me in poem form. So I went this route.
Grace arrives,
Slow spins,
Turns on pointe.
Icy white, silky long gams,
artful satin toes piroutte,
Dazzling beauties float,
Celestial magic moves: jump, twirl, leap,
Adagio then allegro ripple effect,
Glistening magic flutters,
Rhythmic waltz,
Symmetry sparkles,
Last spin glide,
Demi plies of white crystals,
Snow King n' Queen arrive,
Sugar n' spice, sweet dreams
ah, nuts,
Tick Tock magic strikes,
in perennial fashion.
