Christmas Memories

Jolly is the memories of places that I have been

The fuel oil smelled and carried an odor that turned stomach but warm
Like the many thoughts I have of Christmas smells touched feelings

Strong of all sense encapsulated warmth and glow of seasoned years
So many of slight fragrances turn my mind into mush as memories flood
Wonder is the gift of love on a page being written life is full when lived

Words are like the gifts given now and then

Hear the angels sing lift up our souls
who will take our spirit who will count the gold

passion is a memory of what is yet to come
love is the reason for living for some
me I just like to write my words down

Windows look into many of the view behind and a head

Remember on the lawn a voice of Christmas joy
stockings hung filled with lots of toys

cookies and licking out the bowl
church bells tolling carols of old
pump organ playing soft and slow

excitement comes in stories said and read

Built a manger of a fallen pine tree
sweet the smell of evergreen

touched the hearts of many passer by
how does joy make a man cry
sing to me bible verse and stay

Linger now a little while and share
for in my words you just might be there

to taste and feel all that is a part of me
lost in thought under the Christmas tree
child lost in the large of my lap asleep
