Christmastime

Winter's a coming
The snow is a falling
Big trees are a glistening
With lights on the walls and

Peppermint in the air
And pine needles on floors
Deer on our lawns
And wreaths on our doors

Snow days are important
Hot chocolate is too
The sky's turning colors
White, gray, and blue

Cold temperatures
That travel into homes
Calling and greeting
Loved ones over phones

Wrapping the presents
Placing the bows
Cutting the tape
The T-L-C shows

The songs on the radio
With Fa-la-la-la-la's
We stare at the plate
Of the turkey that was

No matter your money
Your family or size
Each Christmas season
Is its very own prize
