Fearless since what’s there to fear
Yet fearful of what might appear
But likely won’t. With death around
May Christmas cheer help hope abound.
Linked to dVerse Poetics. Laura Bloomsbury is hosting with a list of words ending in ‘less’ to include in a poem along with, hopefully, “a soupçon of hopefulness for Hope is the message in this first advent week!” I picked the word ‘fearless’.

Death is around in my world of late. I like the thought of Christmas cheer and hope abounding! Thank you.

We do magnify fears of things that we don’t understand. Being with family and friends in celebration can help alleviate them. (K)
