Description Twirling in the warmth of blankets and pillows
like the snow just outside my window;
arms stretched out to either side,
stay where you are and enjoy the ride.

In our minds, we can be on a sleigh
just find us some horses and be on our way.
Snuggled up with cocoa on our laps,
when in reality we're just taking a wintery nap.

Money's tight but that doesn't mean we can't pretend
that a fire place is roaring inside our head,
break out the wine that is actually just water,
and sit beside me and kiss me just a little bit longer.

Turn off all the lights but leave the Christmas ones on,
Flip through the channels and find a soft, romantic song,
Offer me your hand and lets dance for a few,
Run your hands down my sides and whisper "I love you."

We do not need anything fancy to say we're in love,
Do not need any riches or any white doves,
though presents are nice, they are not a need
all I want is you right here with me.

So lets pretend for the evening that it's snowy instead of rain,
and our apartment is full of decorations and I wear a golden chain,
we're all bundled up with the fireplace glowing,
and tonight I am going to be the only thing that you're holding.

This is just absolutely and wonderfully beautiful.
Makes me feel all giddy and wintery and cheery and mushy and romantic and... *sigh* Just, oh so twitterpatery (yep, just invented a word, to describe how this makes me feel).

And for all of that, you're definitely responsible for bringing my mood up.

My partner and I aren't giving each other gifts this year - instead we're giving each other the "gift of grace" for our Christmas season, just to be loving and caring to each other and the ones we love around us.
It's nice to know we're not the only ones who think that material gifts aren't so great <3

That's beautiful. Definitely. Gifts are over-rated. But how many people get to be in loving arms over Christmas?

It makes me sad to think of how many people, troops for example, who don't get to spend christmas with their loved ones, let alone get a present. I'm living in a military household at the moment, so it's of particular significance here, as "Dad" is getting sent to Iraq next year. This Christmas will be very bittersweet for me, but I'm going to make the most of it by sharing as much love as I can, even to people who don't think I care. I'm doing my bit to make sure that more people in my part of the world get to be in loving arms this season.

(And please - I know it could sound sus, and possibly corny, but hey, that's me - I'm terribly idealistic, and believe in the best in people)

I hope you will be in loving arms this Christmas season

Awwwah that is definitely sad but I can relate. But at least you have this Christmas to spend with him! To make it one of the best Christmas yet!

And I hope to be!
