Softly dawn, through linen veils Touches air on silken sails Navigated deepest seas Kisses flutter gentle breeze Said in satin sleek as rain Slipped off covers smooth terrain Nurtured whispers spelled in trance Hearts together close in dance Christmas magic velvet red Fireside enchantments said Wrapped in tinsel smiles wide Love like snow falls soft inside Candy apple sweet and dear Nibbled treat from ear to ear Stars exploding as we see Gifts exchanged beneath the tree Now unwrapped, the well uncapped Rivers running spirits tapped Whipped cream toppings sweet to trim Smiles exalted Santa’s whim Crackling fire glowing low Underneath the mistletoe Once upon a Christmas night Gifts to treasure by the light Copyright Kkh 12/16/02 |
