Poem for December: “Mend”
Welcome to the December Almanac. Our theme this month is MEND. All our posts will center around that theme in some way. Below is a poem written by Giants & Pilgrims own Tim Coons, all about this month.
“Mend”
by Tim Coons
December is an old quilt
a warm blanket near the hearth-
the home’s foundational fire
We tuck in after feasts and toasts
and carols around the table
We cozy in as the snow blankets
all corners of our city
Amidst the joy of the tree and holly,
sweet nativities,
and lights
inside and out
a Great New birth stirs in our hearts
And we are put together, mended
in this shelter
and home
