"One Winter Cold"

A man was standing 
In the middle of the winter's cold 
As the snow begun to fall, 
"It's Christmas Eve" he's told 
"I Know" as the cold wind blows 
The man replied, 
"The wind, the snow, the cold I cannot hide" 
"But as you can see" as he continued, 
"I felt no such," 
"For I am wrap with warm memories", 
"Of Friends and Families who loved"....
