Museum of Innocence*

Rochelle Lynn Holt

There should be Museum of Innocence
with chamber reserved just for Christmas
preserves barometer of age.

There would be scented pine—childhood past
with wrapped gifts under tree on stage;
gingerbread people in oven for sense

of smell before taste with gauge.
Memories of gathered family would be dense
like turkey and trimmings after mass.

We’d remember birth of Love like incense
years afterward when we were sage
travelers become magi witnesses.

Mature, we’d measure beyond rage
for everything we considered lost:
homeless, poor, distant soldiers in tent.

We’d then feed hungry with dignity, class,
giving to strangers beyond neighbor’s fence.
New photos would fill album page.

There should be Museum of Innocence
with chamber reserved just for Christmas
preserves barometer of age.
