My Gift to You

My Gift to You

Sharp, icy air chills to my very marrow,
deep thick grey clouds roll over head.
Wind whispers through the trees.
So cold that my muscles ache,
wearing out my very soul.

The door opens,
warm yellow light pours onto the snow.
The friendly fire warms my soul,
twinkling lights lift my heavy spirits.
Songs of the season reach my ears,
cheery voices melodically bringing joy.

Smells of sweets fill the home.
Laughter floats from room to room.
Eggnog, coco and cider,
sipping to fight the cold.

With each other we never tire
Hearts together, linked
Let us rejoice in the pleasure,
warmth and love of the season,
facing the cold alone another day.

Peace be with the ones
the ones who see this verse,
you are my friends and family,
to me one and the same.
I love you all.

Let the love of the season warm your heart
