Winter Cogitations

Attack of below zero temperature assailing Blankets the room beyond blustery Chills of the arctic, cleaving… Daring to defy dreariness Enveloping season of enchanting enigmas Fueled by prayer place while adorned with furred coat, fleecy… Glistening yuletide trees glare midst lantern glow Herald helping faith messages from God, hoisting hope* Insulated with fellowship warmth against ice-kissed isolation… Jingling bells blend with carol hymns, joyous Knitted family ties intensified by gestures, verily kind Love prevails to blossom, bearing fruits after Winter’s** leaflessness. *Psalm 78:7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments. **Just thinking in my "winterless" situation since I live in the Tropics. "Double ABC" since the first letters of the first and last words follow the ABC pattern. December 30, 2020 Edited on December 30, 2022
