This the Season for Lovers

’Tis the season for lovers,
for cuddles and cheer,
for stealing the blankets—
yes, every dang year.
For matching pajamas
you swore you’d never wear,
yet here you are posing
with reindeer ears in your hair.
It’s the season of cocoa,
of sweet mistletoe kisses,
of “I love you so much”…
and unfinished to-do lists.
It’s the season of holding
onto each other tight—
even when someone
snores like a bear all night.
But somehow it’s magic,
the way love always is:
the laughter, the chaos,
the moments you don’t miss.
So here’s to the lovers—
perfectly imperfect together—
making joy out of December,
and making love last forever.
