Christmas Glow, Glow, Gone

Hang onto the hem of this Christmas day it goes past so fast and is now a whole 'nother year away This day of Christmas celebration is winding down the golden, honey sun has traversed the sky, heading horizon wise... bellies are full, presents all disclosed and flashy merriment loud and laughy, turns now to soft-glow candles lit, hugs and easy chairs, soft smiles and television parade and ice skating specials! The warmth, the love, the mistletoe.. the food, the family, the fun too soon do go! The twinkly lights, presents and tree and not one car on the road as far as I can see! No siren sounds, no horns do blow just soft-sparkle Christmas lights reflected off the snow..... had so much fun, I just hate to see it go!
