The guests now gone,

the home as quiet as can be,

 

I sit in my living room,

just me and my little Christmas tree.

 

I think of the years,

Christmas’ from the past,

 

cherish these special moments,

want the good memories to last.

 

The winter will progress,

the cold sure to give a chill,

 

I will look forward to next year,

where I can make fond memories still
