Leave It With a Kiss

Candle moments on the mind inside the sanctuary of our thoughts A breath of winter falls upon our wanting hearts. With the arrival of the winter chill, a red poinsettia in the snow. As we enter doors all gilded gold the world suddenly unfolds. Accordion dreams that fold unfold inside our souls like origami birds of joy. Fly to the window and look at the festive season with new eyes it is not about the presents nor about the frenzy rides A little child with kindness in His eyes has birthed us alongside Him and suddenly, we know love... With arms wide open greet the season and do not be afraid those smiles you see on people's faces, they are candle moments on your mind. Light the flame of happiness and share it with your kin. No greater time of year than this, so leave it with a kiss.

Rose you have a heart of gold. I love poinsettias. Next month I will buy a couple to decorate my Christmas crib.
