A see through balloon
of orange paper petals
bounces to Bea’s kicks.
Juliet spreads Lego
rocking Santa garms
glancing at the guest.
Super Mum, a natural,
scratch cooks lunch
with effortless ease.
Dad works daily tasks;
bins, shuttles, socks,
big hugs and baths.
Apollo arches his back
to the sight of bird feet
grazing glittering snow.
Logs on the fire crackle
as off limits Smarties
fill cheeky, joyful palms.
Stories encourage snores
welcoming a Cava pop
and rest into the night.
