In under 2 weeks we went from a record breaking snow fall
to this
John and I decided to walk - a long walk - a 2 hour walk - with my camera in hand.....................
as the day progressed and twilight fell - the magic happened - Christmas hasn't left at all
I loved seeing that the city was lazily holding on to the prettiness ...................
It spoke to me -
And this is what it said
Welcome back - it's good to see you
come stroll awhile
we did this for you
enjoy the magic of the season
take a break - remember to breathe - to sit - to relax - to enjoy
you were too busy shopping and wrapping and cleaning and cooking and decorating - to take the time to notice
we're not going anywhere just yet
let us cast our magic upon you for awhile
take it all in
look in wonderment
let your heart sing
we decked the halls for you my friend
but you scurried here and there and never noticed
you forgot about us - the streets of your home - once you packed it all away
and it says
with every step I take
slow down
you're going too fast
you've got to make the moments last
the way you once did - long long ago - when every moment was a life time
this year in particular, Christmas flew by far too quickly, did yours?
life shouldn't be a blur.....................
