The Heart of Christmas

In sparkling lights and evergreen,
A warmth of joy, a peaceful scene.
The world adorned in red and gold,
A timeless story, forever told.

The scent of pine and ginger’s spice,
Of laughter shared, so warm and nice.
With carols sung in voices bright,
We gather close on this holy night.

Gifts wrapped with care, beneath the tree,
Yet love’s the gift that sets us free.
In every hug, in each kind word,
The spirit of Christmas can be heard.

Through chilly nights and winter’s grace,
We find in hearts a sacred place.
A season’s cheer, so pure and deep,
In moments ours to always keep.

So let us cherish, near and far,
The joy that makes us who we are.
For Christmas lives in hearts that give,
A light of love, the way we live.
