Belonging at Last

Before and afterwards reflect
Extensions, phases interlocking,
Linking loss with Xmas stocking.
Open source choice, voice, [s]elect
Now knit joy’s Cause join joy’s Effect.
Greetings sent, hopes met, unlocking
Inner potential and unblocking
New ways which interplays connect,
Great expectations recollect -
Ambitions past the heart's been stocking
To hold against a day unmocking
Leaving restrictions for perfect
Affection which with shared direction
STands firm, affirms hope's resurrection...
