It’s the lively crunch of snow
and the sparkle of lights
It’s jolly red noses and cold toes,
warmed by roaring fires
It’s the cheerful smell of hot chocolate
and the taste of mince pies
It’s precious moments savoured,
full of brightness and love
It’s the magic of giving
and the joy of wonder
It’s boisterous tired children,
too excited to sleep
It’s the celebration of family,
gathered together in peace
