Thoughts of Christmas

The flickering lights of my lovely tree
Provide a certain peace to me

I'm well at ease and deep in thought
With future plans and visions sought

The blanket of white from my window view
Awakens my Christmas spirit too

Wrapping gifts while music plays
Counting down the December days

Baking cookies and making fudge
These Christmas tasks are not a drudge

Special greetings and cards to send
To family and every friend

I love this special time of year
Chock full of things that I hold dear

My spirits lift,my heart does soar
Wish it was Christmas evermore!

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could live with the spirit of Christmas in our hearts every day, Deb? Listening to Christmas music while wrapping gifts is a great way to get in the mood. Have a blessed holiday! Love, Carolyn

May Christmas tides ever flood your soul! Your tidings of joy inspired me this holiday season. You captured the essence of Christmas. Your couplet rhyme scheme was nice! Merry Christmas! Steve
