Season of Lights
Lights from the tree throw golden halos;
Logs in the grate crackle and hiss
Candles flames dance tall and true -
But nothing beams brighter,
than excited eyes
on Christmas eve,
When children,
breathless-
wait …
Logs in the grate crackle and hiss
Candles flames dance tall and true -
But nothing beams brighter,
than excited eyes
on Christmas eve,
When children,
breathless-
wait …
