The Festive Season's Calling

The year's been winding down, a blur of days gone by Heartaches left their mark, a teardrop in my eye Felt a little lost, adrift in worries and in doubt But then a whisper on the breeze, a cheer without a shout The festive season's calling, with lights that paint the night A gentle invitation, to set the burdens right Wreaths and carols fill the air, a warmth that fills the soul A time for giving, loving, making ourselves whole Memories come flooding back, of laughter in the snow Of loved ones gathered 'round, a fire's golden glow Stories shared and secrets kept, beneath the twinkling tree A sense of peace descends on me, a gift for you and me The festive season's calling, with lights that paint the night A gentle invitation, to set the burdens right Wreaths and carols fill the air, a warmth that fills the soul A time for giving, loving, making ourselves whole Even if the path was rough, and shadows filled the way This time reminds us that there's hope, a brand new dawning day Kindness like a gentle flame, will chase the darkness deep Together we can mend the tears, and find a place to sleep The festive season's calling, with lights that paint the night A gentle invitation, to set the burdens right Wreaths and carols fill the air, a warmth that fills the soul A time for giving, loving, making ourselves whole So let the healing spirit flow, with every joyful sound The festive season mends the heart, on this hallowed ground
