Notes About The Poem

The Yuletide Season

The Yuletide Season

Seen through the window by the fireplace’s illuminating fuel
Is a family gathering celebrating the Yule;
A union of Noël greeters in wondrous delight
Expresses warmth, joy, and happiness within the house.
They wish each other a Merry Christmas with sincerity and cheer
And exchange cards and presents while snapping pictures.

In the corner, a fir tree stands with a star topper bright
Decorated with ornaments, tinsel strings, and twinkling lights.
Down the banister and around the room, garlands run,
And over the mantle, holly and a wreath are hung.
Then singing is heard accompanied by piano music playing,
Followed by the raising of glasses to toast the Yuletide season.

Outside in the cold covered with snow while walking alone,
Memories of home come to mind, and how the years have flown.

Hello Denis, this year we had a green Christmas instead of white.. I enjoyed the green Christmas. It is easier for travelling around the city. I hope you had a good Christmas. Enjoy your evening my friend.
