Xmas Wish



Around Xmas time
A star and a tree
Have never failed to reward
When I sought some inspiration
For my annual wishing card.

A tree
Is made
Of the dust of stars
And a star's
partly made
of trees.

When invited to toast,
Whatever it is
You hold in your hand
There's your hand
In whatever you hold.
Whatever you hold
In your eye
Is the same,
And in whatever I hold
There is I.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

i'm not surprised that there are no comments here yet. some of my greatest submitted poems have had no comments as well. well, don't get me wrong! i'm not saying this is a great poem. i think i like it most (after 3? readings) when i don't try hard to make sense out of it. not sure what the wish is; is it stated in your poem sir? i liked the hand/eye section especially.....though, again, i did not understand it. i want to look at one more of your poems, a few back on your list. thanks for YOUR comment today on my 'ph identity poem'. and you were CLOSE, very close, about my name; it is Eon (not Ian) Brontosaurus Edwards. thanks for sharing whatever it was you were sharing above. bri
