I Remember Christmas

I close my eyes and I can smell it.

The pies, the cakes, the turkey.

I remember Christmas.

I hear the children laughing.

I hear my own laughter...as a child...at Christmas.

The family gathered at my grandma's house.
The tree, the lights, the feeling...of Peace And Joy and Silent Night.

I remember Christmas.

The Christ child in a manger.The angels singing.

Heaven ringing...at the sight.

I remember Christmas.

The way it used to be.
The way it remains...deep in my heart.
