Merry Christmas

I can't believe how fast this year went by.

I am very grateful for my blogging friends and

your thoughtful comments mean the world to me.

I love seeing your blogs and all your creativity too.

I'm wishing you all a wonderful, magical Christmas.

It's Raining Christmas Joy

It's a cold winter's night,

Raindrops glisten in the moonlight.

Inside where it's warm,

The Christmas tree is adorn.

Twinkling sparkles blink in delight,

On this joyous beautiful night.

To all my dear blogging friends,

especially those who follow along,

I hope the holiday season fills

your heart with joyous memories.

Another poem written last night by me...

Thinking of Someone Special,

Christmas and Puttin' Up a Tree
