Synonymous ... Done

Today’s word is “synonymous” ... equivalent in meaning; expressing or implying the same idea. (Dictionary.com)

Done
Packing up the decorations,
Christmas now inside a box,
It seems that all the joy within,
Is until the next year, locked.

As if the Christ child has been hushed,
He, unable to bring peace,
Or comfort or a hopeful future,
Boxed, for now, his powers cease.

Yet we know he’s not contained,
Within any man-made walls,
Only in human hearts he hides,
Synonymous he, with love still calls.
