I get a feeling around this time of year

that is especially warm and sweet

I feel a little bit more loving, and a little more upbeat

the cold makes me want to snuggle, to bake things and to smile

though the season has me feeling this way for quite a while

it doesn't even snow here, yet the cold is brisk and fresh

my kitten snuggles in my laundry basket while the dog lays by the heater

and thinking of the holiday celebrations that approach

only heighten the joy that my soul generates

hugging relatives, telling good news of the year, making new friends, the holiday cheer

do you feel the vibe? I can see a glowing star in my dreams

I feel love for everyone, and send out a twinkling wish for each

let my happiness be contagious and the joy ever surround you
