Reverie of Wintertime

In winter’s peaceful reverie, enchanting snowfall reigns with dizzy, wistful flurries that flow so lightly down they settle softly o’er the treetops and the winding lanes while children sled around and distant church bells sound across the wavy hillsides and blanketed white ground. And in the air, aromas waft of lightly roasted chestnuts distinctly mixed with purest scents of cinnamon and spice it lingers around chimneys, settles into evening’s hush enticing all to gather into home and hearth’s fire light to celebrate with Christmas songs and jubilant delight.

Hi Laura. I’ve always wanted to taste roasted chestnuts at Christmas but alas I am in the Southern Hemisphere. One day though! Congrats on your win in the contest.
