"Snow Globe"
Words & Music by John Bowen C 2010
High on my mantle there, a memory
Reflects the winter warmth
you brought to me
Through colored lights
Cold snowy nights
A promise you once made to me

Within an orb of glass
A tale so warm
Two snowbirds clinging fast
against the storm
Pure love in his eyes
She's holding him oh so tight
Both hopeful their love will survive

Reflections of love through a snow globe
Never again will our love be

So cold the winter air
Which once held love
A silence, hard to bear
No stars above
Only empty pain
Cold biting winter rain
A feeling I'll never love again

Reflections of love through a snow globe
Never again will our love be

Reflections of hope through a snow globe
The only thing you've left here for me

Grit, Leigh, Nelson, Wiley and Nadia-
Thanks all so much.  Originally I was going to do a jazz version of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" but this little ditty came into my head.

I took notice I've been added to the Yule Fest.  I'm very proud!
