I hear a flutter in the breeze
There is snow upon the ground
All the leaves have fallen
Not a single one to be found.

So it makes me ponder
On this lovely winter day
Could it be an angel?
In the snow at play?



I go ahead and build my snowman
I work with cheerful hands
Carrot nose and button eyes
To make him look so grand.

I think I hear a little giggle
A flutter in the breeze
I look up to see, who might be here
But it's, just my snowman and me.



With all this Yule time cheer
On my face I have a smile
Soon we will be singing songs
As we gather around the fire.

It's nearly time to go in
I'll soon be snug in bed
As I dream of sugar plums
Dancing in my head.



Now it's Christmas Morning
We gather around the tree
I look out the frost window
My eyes just can't believe!

A beautiful smile on my snowman
My hands could have never achieved
I walked the same snow prints
That I had made that very night.



Only one going to it, one coming back
As I look at the snowy base
I see a folded note;
Looking so mystified

With wonder on my face,
As I read the words
This is what it said,



"I enjoyed the wonderful evening
Seeing the joy your heart does hold,
But, there is more to this message
To you, that must be told.
Always remember...

The reason for this season
The night that Christ was born
All those that gathered
In the manger long ago.



Always remember His love and giving ways
Then you can have Christmas, every single day
And if you don't mind...
I would love to come next year".
