Snowflakes falling, melting on the ground.

She comes over, calling out right now.

Lips like cherries stark against the pale

Like winterberries 'round the time of now.

I've fixed the hollies 'round the Christmas wreath

Where mother's told me at the painted door.

Breath is crystal, droplets in the air.

I'm freezing under but winter doesn't care.

Snow is crunching on the snowy ground

As boots run over the white blanket that is found.

Sparkling snow glitters in the light

As sun graces the earth with a warm delight.

Laughter spills from the neighbor's home tonight

When day falls over and changes into night.

Smiles paint the walls of every cozy home.

Dreary it isn't; our winter's glow has come.

Strung lights are winking to every passerby

That walks the streets with a happy heart tonight.

Dreams and wishes are heard all around.

Children hope they can see the reindeer fly.

Her frozen fingers clasp mine with a breathy sigh

As eyes of glee turn up to me all bright.

Crimson ribbon hangs down from above

Where a mistletoe's dangling in the sphere of love.

I kissed her under the mistletoe that night

As hours turn the clock to midnight.

Sparkling laughter flew high like soaring kites.

I kissed her under the mistletoe that night.
