I remember your eyes

So light and gray

Filled with light 

On Christmas Day.

 

The look of awe

You gave our tree

We shared that 

Special Christmas glee

 

I feel your spirit

Close to me

I feel your smile

Wash over me

 

I wish for you

This Christmas tide

The love of God

And with him abide.
