Candles radiated

warmth in

my

heart,

 

fairy lights twinkled

at start

of

twilight,

 

reminding me of

Christmas's

gone

before.

 

Though I age

magic of

youth

never disappears,

 

we stumbled

through the

night from one

party to the next,

 

houses full to busting

with laughter,

there was

music so loud,

 

we were

party revelers many

as smooches

we shared.

 

*

 

Spirit of Season

has come

around

once again,

 

as those

festivities

begin to

unravel...

 

dizzy with shopping when we've

caroused every store,

gifts for loved ones

and a whole lot more.

 

 

Now relax

rest assured,

take pleasure in

  reflecting on...

 

holly, robins

and

mistletoe

kisses,

 

turn up

the music

or read

a good book,

 

there's time to write a

story or poem,

catching the eye

with a great hook.

 

HAPPY CHRISTMAS 2017

ABC TALES

TO ONE

AND

ALL.

Did not expect the ending..very well done, nice segue to Christmas wishes. Your words on revelers and party smooches took me back a bit too...my husband and I kissed for the first time on New Years Eve at a friends house party...great memory you unearthed for me too.

Merry Christmas and best New Year ever....!smiley
