The Reading

after all that
she stepped onto the stage, graceful
as any dancer

white cashmere on black,
tasteful heels, silver pendant
slightly cockeyed, no doubt

still askew from her last
pirouette; slightly breathless,
apologetic, she read

as a flurry of snowflakes
blew in the open door and a 
Rabbi wearing a Santa Claus hat rode by

bells ringing, bike lights flashing 
 Merry Christmas to All.
