Christmas Memories: Then and Now

Christmas through the years. A festive song of memories and change.

Childhood Christmas, fifty years ago. Snow fell gentle as our hearts grew wide.

Waiting for morning with hope in our eyes. A handful of presents beneath the

glowing tree. Imagination carried us where we dreamed to be. Family gathered round,

laughter filled the air. Slow days unfolding, simple love to share.

Buildup of wonder, each minute slow and sweet. Meals and games and stories,

together we'd repeat, oh. The magic we would find

in the glow of candlelight. Shared warmth and sacred time, rituals holding tight.
