Christmas Wonderland: A Poem

Chilly starlight mixed with snowy dreams,

A hush covers the evergreen woods like a quilted blanket,

Hand in fuzzy mitten-covered hand,

We warm each other with glowing hearts,

Overflowing with the joy of remembered childhood,

And with the knowledge that Christmas is near,

The aroma of pine needles tickles our noses,

And the scent of hot chocolate and sugar cookies tantalizes our taste buds,

Beckoning us home from the winter's trail,

As twinkling lights hang neatly from the roof,

To reflect the joyful sparkle in our smiling eyes.
