What do we do?
What do we do when all the magic is gone?
When all the magic is gone?

This Holiday. The ice may be free,
But I am missing important
People dancing around my mind
In imaginary ice-skates,
Making this A Solemn Season. I used to watch
The couples ice-skating competitions with
My Gramma, and
My Pop-Pop,
Never knowing what ice-skating had,
Really meant to my
Grandparents,
Until recent years,
When it was revealed that
The Ice Capades was their first date.
I am watching Holiday Hallmark
Ice-skating movies, reminiscing
The ice-dancers,
And the festive
Christmas music playing in the background,
Has given me reverberating ice-tears.

“…The Hess Truck’s here.”
“…You can count on me…”
“The Hess Truck’s back and its better than ever!”
(“If Only In My Dreams”)
“For Christmas this year…”
(“If Only In My Dreams”)
“Lifting spirits this year…”
(“If Only In My Dreams”)
(“If Only In My Dreams”)
(“If Only In My Dreams”)
(“If Only In My Dreams”)
