Here Again

Friends and acquaintances at my February 2007 'farewell' party.
Kintra Community Hall, Isle of Mull, Scotland

Here Again
12/25/10

Another cycle rounds the turn
on straightaway to year's finish
and so much has transpired
as I think of past,
different Christmas holidays over decades
enjoyed with many loved ones,
some now in spirit world
others rarely seen, conversed with,
yet all have imprinted me
leaving mark in joyous heart
from my splendid good fortune
to be born 'Kevin Spitzer'
experiencing brother, sisters, and parents
while growing older, becoming man,
discovering extended family in friends,
acquaintances, girlfriends, wives, mutually blessed
in sharing life's fleeting moments
exchanging gifts of smiles, laughter,
hugs, best wishes here again.
