Stuck In a Snow Globe With You

Holly boughs draping from mantel bring cheer; Christmas lights twinkling on tree. carolers singing their hymns loud and clear setting the Yule spirit free. Fire softly burning as shadows display dancing like elves on the wall; cinnamon cider scent slowly makes way as signs of the season enthrall. Snow globe on table depicts winter scene, Christmas of so long ago. Sleigh ride through forest so still and serene; lovers hold tight in the snow. Sitting on sofa with sweetheart so near, gazing into her green eyes; toasting the season with cider and cheer, hoping for ardent surprise. Season’s gay setting a vision sublime, like snow globe’s cold wintery view; wishing this moment was frozen in time stuck in a snow globe with you.

How lovely to be "stuck in a snow globe" as the Yuletide approaches, John. Congratulations on your win in Brian's contest and best wishes in Kim's contest too. We chose the same title, but really all of them were nice.

Being surrounded by the magic of the moment, tenderness of the season- as thoughts of love linger, while being held so close. Soft sigh. Such a lovely image you have painted with your words. So beautiful and romantic my friend. :) Brandy
