Frosty icicles
Cold, upon the colored leaves
Glaciates autumn

Some of you may have already seen these photos. But I believe the glory of a new day should be shared again and again. I hope you’ll indulge me on this one.

Soundly tucked away
Nestled in evergreen beds
New life awaits spring

Sparkling white, like a shining star
Glistening softly, from where they are
The glory of Christmas begins to unveil
With beautiful lights, aglow, what a tale!
Of a jolly old man, who stopped by to visit
And brought with him, Oh! I wonder, who is it?
Why it’s his little elves, who wrapped up in bows
Toys for the kiddies, and everyone knows
When magic appears over skies, high above
It’s Santa and his reindeer, leaving packages of love
My Note: Had a few moments while sitting at the hospital, tried to think of happy things. This is what I came up with 🙂
