The Kiss

Sitting in the last glow
of the all the glitter
One last candle burning low
All the happy voices gone
Just one candle burning on

Only shadows showing everywhere:
Then Some one came,
and kissed me there.

No sound I heard
But in my heart I did know
Nodding near the candle glow
No footsteps came, no voice
as I sat there, sleepy and alone

Then I stood
There in the still and misty air
A love came unseen -
and kissed me,
that holiday eve
