Beneath the gentle glow of winter’s light,
The world breathes softly in December’s hush,
As stars adorn the velvet cloak of night,
And snow descends in whispers, soft and lush.

The hearth burns bright with flames of love and cheer,
While carols weave their warmth through frosted air;
Each heart holds hope that banishes the fear,
And dreams of joy and peace beyond compare.

Oh, Christmas season, cradle us with grace,
Unite all souls beneath your tranquil gaze.
Let kindness bloom in every time and place,
And pave the path to brighter, gentler days.

May love endure beyond the season’s glow,
A guiding star through all we’ll ever know.
