Annie - There's a Feeling in the Air...


There’s a feeling in the air
The sweaters and jeans,
The bond fires with friends,
The sipping hot chocolate by a warm fire,
The friends and family laughing together,
The love and joy,
The feeling of pure happiness,
There’s a feeling in the air of a perfect winter wonderland. 

Annie, age 16
