Love and Eternity: XXII

XXII
"December Breeze"


My skin shivers in the December breeze
Enter the chill of winter's eve
Ringing bells and twinkling lights
Round each and every house at night
Yonder I see misty mornings of fog and dew
Children frolicking in the Christmas hue
Hand in tow of young curiosity
Radiating warmth, compassion and generosity
In every gift and card we share
Show each other our love and care
Time and again this season comes
Merrily we whistle those Christmas hums
As we pass lanterns of red and yellow
Showers of patterns bright or mellow
Enter homes so inviting and warm
Evenings so pleasant and full of charm
Stirs within each and everyone
A kinship unbound, feeling as one
Harken now, my love, my dear
Keep my love unbidden so near
Open your arms this Christmas time
Hearts melt together in love's warmth sublime
