It's a funny sort of time isn't it
Exchanging unwanted gifts.... I feel like there's a story behind that! π
Well-wrought! The gift as talisman for that which it can never truly replace, nevertheless in troubled times, a means of grace.
Ah yes! Storing away those gifts worth treasuring! Lovely, Cathy!

It's only the memories that truly stay, ornaments that we secret away. Loved your Haiku, Cathy!
