It's coming to that time of year again
When familiar sights, sounds and smells seep into the memory and the mind
Putting up the tree
Scents of pine
Pies and cookies baking
Cards and letters being sent
Memories of the season
When holiday lights and decorations appear
And holiday tunes are played on the radio
Shoppers abound on the streets, looking for the perfect gift
Memories of the season
People take on the holiday hustle and bustle
Light snowflakes dance through the air to their own melody
Memories of the season
And for me, a pleasant childhood memory of driving with my dad with the radio playing Frank Sinatra in the background as we headed out once again to find the perfect tree
Holiday memories make everything special
