Christmas Season

Through frosted window panes, a wonderland aglow,

With twinkling lights on a gently falling snow.

Familiar Christmas carols softly chime,

A timeless tapestry, carefully woven in a perfect rhyme.

*

The sharp scent of pine; a crackling, warm fire,

Memories roused, hearts held higher.

Laughter rings aloud, stories begin to unfold,

Of cherished traditions, both the new and the old.

*

In silent moments, a peace softly descends,

A gentle stillness that transcends.

Gratitude's warmth fills everyone’s hearts,

For blessings shared as the Yule season starts.

*

So let the spirit of the holiday season reign,

In everyone’s heart, a melodic, joyous refrain.

For in these cold, short days; together we find our way,

To love, to hope, to celebrate, and to pray.

About the Creator

Mother Combs

Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats-greats once lived.
