Stemmed cinnamon sticks, cloves,
star-anice, acorns, pine cones,
bound together by golden wires,
lie as a whole on a dried orange slice;
embellished
by velvety bright red ribbons,
tiny ochre leaves,
a silken touch of sapphire beads -
warm atmosphere
in a spicy composition.
This makes me feel Christmassy again.
ReplyDeleteThis is the description of one of the "Christmas compositions" the children and I created and decorated for our tree and crib! I adore using spices to make compositions..I can feel Christmas again, too!
