Christmas
In Edinburgh
by |
|
|
White
fairy lights draped in the trees Ice
skaters in Princes Street Gardens Snow
on the summit of Arthur’s Seat Huskies
pulling sledges round Holyrood Park Wild
geese by Duddingston Loch Stollen*
from the German Market Ferris
wheels Mulled
wine A
fat orange cat by an open fire A
Christmas tree gifted by Norway Candlelit
carols at St Giles Cold
crisp stillness Yellow
moon low in the sky Perhaps
hope Perhaps
peace. |
