Each

                    stains more than            
   just my eyes
Silver laid  
promises
float        
unseen      
to where    
   treasured         
words              
rest &                 
                    still                                       ­

as New Year arrives, darling,
                                                                ­                                    consider where your lips are.
You've got to love those old family favourite games of Christmas's past...
Tilly Dec 2012
Don't ever teach her...
the games of flesh; Sweeter,

broken,
She learnt ~
you'll be played with, cracked up, eaten, BURNT!
Old Chestnuts = same Old stories
Old story that has been told repeatedly before,
a 'venerable' joke.
Hence, the same story, in extended use, anything trite,
stale, or too oft' repeated.

Really.
                               What will they think...
And
what, could they do?

A holiday kiss, from an old fashioned girl.

inspired by an Old Custom...
For each kiss beneath the mistletoe,
you should discard one of the berries.

Sweet, eh x
