Crystaline laughter, greetings, and snowflakes. <br />Tinselled trees draped with ribbons, laces, and <br />Bows. Tiny, sparkling glasses of sherry. <br />Ladies in delicate chiffon. Red berry <br /> <br />Woven wreaths of holly, juniper, wound <br />With silvered streamers, curling round the door <br />Open to all, this season of Good Will. <br />Winter not allowed, yet the outside chill <br /> <br />Accompanies merry, homeward bound guests. <br />Blazing fireplaces wait patiently to <br />Warm and cheer those opening the door. Frost <br />Breaths soon disappear. Parties are hosted <br /> <br />Each night of this Season. Friends not alone, <br />Family gathered again all at home.<br /><br />elysabeth faslund<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/merry-guests-of-this-season-sonnet/
