light from dark

Noses
smushed on glass,
ah-may-zing
at the best

holiday display
in a raindrop prism.
We visit this house
every night,
counting Santas,
waiting,
wishing for snow.

Our work
is so readily 
distilled, 
yet every-single-day
oh-so-challenging
in its execution--
Keep them safe,
keep their lights
shining bright
against
dark.
