A Pine of Light
Shimmering bells jingle as children play
A joyful feline waits just around the just corner
Finally tasting victory as children scamper away
Hear grandmother and mother baking
In the warm glow of the kitchen
Their voices softly talking about the days
Sweeter than a lullaby
A spell of delights and bliss
Comes in a scent
Filling this house with such warmth
Glimmering and shimmering
He stands
Watching these Christmas days
Decorated in memories so divine
Ribbons and bells
Silver threads and angels
Ornaments from many years ago
Remind us
Of these precise memories
Once no snow man stands
And all the beautiful snowflakes have drifted
Into the sea of the earth
We will plant him in the forest
To not let these memories die
But grow for ever more
With each and ever tree we plant
