Listen to poem:

Winter's Cachet

november skies are grey 
the sun has gone away
the cold is here to stay

fireplaces aglow today
marshmallows to flambé
winter reminds us of its cachet

gearing up for a grand holiday
lights and sparkles on display
jolly carols play mirthfully

festive bells all in array
riding in on a sleigh 
for a lovely movie matinee

warmest wishes to convey
for a perfect christmas day
