Outside the air is cool and crisp.
The sounds of silent night are faint in the distance,
The tree is trimmed and the packages
are scattered around the floor.
The smell of pine and cinnamon fill the air.
The table is set but each chair sits bare.
The house is quiet but the spirit is strong.
Wrapping its presence around me,
and filling me with its love...
But there is one thing missing
that would make this Christmas complete.
The greatest gift I could receive...
Is to have you here beside me,
to kiss under the mistletoe.
To stand arm in arm watching the snow
fall gently to the ground.
To gaze deeply into your eyes
and feel your warm embrace.
As I whisper Merry Christmas
to you my one my only love...
