CHRISTMAS SENSES

Christmas trees with twinkling lights
Sparkling tinsel spread around
Ornaments and decorations
On the green boughs, hanging down.

A wreath of holy on the outside
Mistletoe above the door
Sounds of those Christmas carols
Telling tales of Christmas lore.

Presents wrapped in shiny paper
Tied with pretty ribbons’ bows
The wonder in wee ones’ eyes
As their anticipation grows.

The chill crispness of the air
Falling crystals of white snow
The family gathered’ round the hearth
Warmed by the crackling glow.

Eggnog topped with nutmeg
The pies, candies and cakes
The aroma from the kitchen
Of the oven as it bakes.

A birthday celebration
For that someone up above
Thought and wishes ‘round the earth
For a world of peace and love.

It’s too bad it can’t be Christmas
With all it’s hope and cheer
It’s too bad life can’t be lived
Like this day, all through the year.

(sigh) Hey, who said that Christmas can't be celerbrated all year, for this Mistletoe Angel believes it can, as one can give and share each day and live with the spirit of the child within and promote peace on Earth! (angel hugs) So go on and live Christmas 24/7, yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Abe, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20
