A cup of coffee by the fireplace
Whilst looking through the frosted glass
Of snowflakes which seem to race
Down towards the earth so fast
Crunching through the snow all bundled up
Shopping to find presents for those you care
Feeling giddy with cheer even though grown-up
Grateful and joyful feelings which you share
The Christmas tree all lit up brightly
Decorating the house as the holiday approaches
The days nearing till Christmas you note nightly
Pine, gingerbread, and cinnamon being familiar aromas
Attending a candlelight Christmas Eve service
With family learning of the reason for the day
For the Lord was born and is our very purpose
Enjoy all the little things, but forget the reason? Nay
