When the wind is a chilling and the gold sparks are spilling up the chimney's remember of some days long ago Then the frost is a calling with the hint of snow falling for the start of December sets the season aglow Then the stars set a twinkling in the night sky they're winking as they glisten and glitter to light up the night For the goodwill of season both the promise and reason are matched by the weather and arrayed in plain sight Now with sleigh bells a ringing and those carollers singing may the glow of the season be captured in song With the chill air a coming cross the world - there is sunning 'tis the season of pleasin' and we cannot go wrong May the world cease their rushing all the shoving and pushing and pause for a moment to see the season aglow Then they, all in wonder will hear the world thunder and the reasons for seasons is something they'll know Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

May the world cease their rushing all the shoving and pushing and pause for a moment to see the season aglow Nice thoughts Kethry, if only for a moment this could happen maybe the spirit of the holiday would return for some |

Keth lovely poem and very wonderful always I just wish we all were back in the states that’s all, nice and warm and not cold which it is in England very cold indeed. I could just see the snowmen lining up in rows don’t you. You are very special to me and so is the poem. Very well written love and warm stuff as always Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers |
