Holiday lights in a winter sky,
Soft as a whisper, warm as a sigh.
Moments gather, hearts draw near—
Peace and wonder crown the year.
Happy Holidays,
From our Family to Yours!

The table glows with autumn’s light,
Candles flicker, hearts burn bright.
Laughter drifts through rooms of cheer,
A chorus of love, with all gathered near.

Golden leaves in gentle flight,
Remind us blessings take their height.
Each hand we hold, each smile we see,
Is a gift of grace, a melody.

We bow our heads, the silence deep,
For those we cherish, for dreams we keep.
Gratitude flows, a river wide,
Carrying hope on its endless tide.

So let us feast, and let us sing,
Of simple joys that each day brings.
For Thanksgiving’s truth is ever clear—
Love is the harvest we hold most dear.
