A Lazy Afternoon

Snuggled by a fire sipping a hot cup of tea
There is a chill in the air and it's really breezy
It feels as if the temp is twenty nine below
Candles have all been lit creating a soft glow
Wrapped up in a quilt handed down to me
Made by hand with lots of love by my granny
While the snow's beginning to come down 
It covers the ground and trees that are brown
On a cold winter's day it is the perfect spot
For me to get lost in a book that I just bought
The place all to myself and a book to read 
Now all the kids are gone it's just what I need
