Christmas in February

Beth Gibbons

Christmas in February, when our family gathered
We were oblivious of the cold windy snowy weather

The tree and packages were there waiting bright
Smiles were bright for everyone that night

Our soldier boy was home for a day or two
Iraq can't spoil Christmas, we won't let 'em

We will remember this special Christmas forever
May the memory linger in our cherished heart

Come celebrate, our love goes wherever you are
