December

The snow falls from the cloudy sky
And hits the dormant ground
Pine trees covered by snowflakes
A couple skates around an ice rink
Children build snowforts
Families make hot chocolate
Carolers are singing on doorsteps
Christmas is all around
Children open their gifts
Couples curl up by fireplaces
New Year's Eve is creeping up
People celebrate with friends
To ring in the New Year
And when the clock strikes midnight
I count the days until December comes again
