Berry Merry Christmas

Red holly berries
    bring joy to snow-covered smiles
         hearts warm in love's glow

A scene i've often seen when growing up in the Yorkshire dales, your last line says it all for me, Ann, love it.

Hi Anne! I wonder: can people eat holly berries? Birds, maybe. I know pyracantha berries make birds drunk. Well, not a big problem in today's world :) Have a nice Thanksgiving.

Love the imagery of the red berries and the white warmth of 'snow covered smiles' - hope it's a winner for you~

Thanks, Michelle! I've gone back and forth with the title. Don't want to insult anyone who may pronounce B for V. Don't know why I keep borrowing trouble :)
