Oh, the special moments, when those we love are near!
Ringing in the holidays, and spreading love and cheer
It’s magic in the making, under twinkling strands of lights
The gift of family, gathered close, makes everything so right!

Oh my, what’s that smell? What could it be?
Something was putrescent, under the tree!
And there on the floor, with a pretty red bow
Was Granny’s fruitcake, from years long ago

She is a child of purest nature
A beauty, bestowed to the Earth
Among fragrant, multicolored flowers
Green grass, and butterflies adrift in the air
They dance for her, a ballet of splendor
Fluttering wings, their acknowledgement
They have captured and beguiled
Her applause, a request for an encore
And she smiles, with sheer delight
Out-dazzling the morning’s sun

Sunrise paints the morning sky
Exposing colors, soft in hue
Lifts the mists, that wander by
Exposing waters, ever blue
Orange wisps, to light the day
In the valley, where life is grand
As darkness sails on by, gives way
To the heavens, floating, above the land
This is the time when the world renews
Tis a gift from God, this day, anew

He: What do you want for Christmas?
Me: Nothing. I have everything I need.
He: Are you sure?
Me: Yes. We spent the day together, shopping,
dining, and just enjoying. I can’t think of a
better gift than that.
He: I agree. We must do it again. Soon
This is a true story. My husband & I opted to not exchange gifts this year, rather spend more time together just enjoying life. It was truly a beautiful day, with many more to come. 🙂
