Skip and jump,

Fawn at dawn,

Across lane,

Leaving lea

For a dip

At shoreface,

Whence baptised

Beast renewed

Returns to

Spark awe as

Serene scenes’

Flashed highlight. ; )

Wonders wrapped,

Tinsel tapped,

Loves lapped,

Sours sapped—

Where timeous tidings

Emerged from their hidings

Up-cheer Christmas bidings. ; )

Paused per path’s pond, person plus puppy ponder: perhaps parvitude plays perspectives—points partaking purposes piecing peace’s prodigious perfection. ; )

Cetaceans abreast propel confidently through day’s waves both turbulent and still,

Each of adolescence and middlescence with porpoised purpose for other’s will.

While experienced guide teaches distinguished skills for encounters with sharks and krill,

Curious calf’s energy releases from mom latency of life’s youthful thrill. ; )

Ugly duckling of the lake,

Shyly timid at first take—

Solo sips o’er shared quaich,

Swims a give instead a take—

Shines, this now, a swanly make

For beauty’s beholden sake. ; )
