assuage

the yuletide carols
ring melancholy
in my ears this year
family far flung
and friends afield
easy ‘tis to lose
oneself in reverie
and muse upon
the might have beens
the chances
wished revised
and yet I would be
well advised to hold
dear to heart in hand
for in the knowing
that distance
relative remains
so uneasy soul
assuaged and the miles
are but as an inch
for in my heart
their love
all time resides
