The cacophony of light and sound
in celebration
a festival
closing in and encasing
as a soundscape
like a planeterium theatre
Our festival of light
a pat on the back
for making it this far
and a whisper reminding us
"Christmas draws near,
hang in there"
But nowadays,
after accounting for prices
the benefits, the disadvantages
the lights dwindle more each year
the
endangered birds shouting to each other through the forest
I will always remember the glory days
