Trellis

Air breathes yuletide confetti,
Imbuing all with hearthy wonderment.
Shared serenity in the reassembling,
Individual adhesive of the family mosaic.
Coalescing from stormy leagues away,
Braving woes and plights of infernal nights—
Arriving at last to evoke familial birthrights.

Fleeting from commencement;
Goodbye in the greeting kiss,
Sorrow mounting in reunion’s bliss.
Emptiness encroaching the eves,
Sentinel reminder of impending evanescence.

Commiserating in foreign lineage,
Rebranding bonds to last season’s span;
Re-run memories feeding the flame.
Brief birth of happiness;
Family’s voracious survival pleas—
Germinating anew amidst time’s scythe,
Blighted by distance, ripe with strife,
Rugged indestructibility(flushed with life).
