I wrote you a Christmas Eve weather poem. I want to wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a peaceful year ahead.
In the land where snowflakes usually dance, on this Christmas Eve, a warm mild trance. Temperatures soaring, in the sixties they play! Gusty winds whispering, in a festive array.
Santa dons rain gear, his red suit adorned, umbrella in hand, through the night he’s sworn. Raindrops cascade, a rhythmic melody, a liquid symphony on this eve so heavenly.
Rudolph with his nose so bright, the reindeers guiding Santa’s sleigh through the night. What a delight for young and old. This is the magical night.
Glistening lights reflect in puddles below, a different magic, a rain-kissed glow! No snow blankets rooftops, no icy sheen, yet the spirit of Christmas reigns.
Through the night, gusty winds take flight. Carrying carols into the soft moonlight. Rain-soaked rooftops, a shimmering sight, a snowless Christmas, still wrapped in delight.
Morning breaks with mild Christmas clouds. No snowmen to build, no frosty run. But laughter echoes in each raindrop’s fall, as families gather, love embracing all.
No need for mittens, no need for a sled, in the warmth of togetherness joy is spread. A snowless Christmas, a different cheer, celebrating love, the ones we hold dear.
Alas, Beau’s snow dance is but a gasp. It’s raindrops this year, unlike Christmas pasts.
So, let the raindrops be the confetti and glitter. Dancing down rooftops, so merry. In the heart’s warmth, the true gift we find. A snowless Christmas, love intertwined.
So, let the raindrops sing, let the winds softly speak. A snowless Christmas, love’s language unique. In the warmth of His presence our hearts alight. Jesus, the reason for this joyous night.
Merry Christmas to one and all
~ Beau
