Paper-white petals tucked in a bouquet
Winter’s bloom of cinnamon wishes and roses of red
Paper-white petals tucked in a bouquet

Tendrils of time joining circles widespread
Lasting moments on this elderberry night
Winter’s bloom of cinnamon wishes and roses of red

Framed in love meant to bless this rite
A celebration to mark the beginning and the end
Lasting moments on this elderberry night

A word, a memo meant to suspend
Tomorrow’s reach is led astray
A celebration to mark the beginning and the end

Tears have no place on this special day
A last Christmas spent in joy together
Tomorrow’s reach is led astray

Angel wings of delicate feathers
A last Christmas spent in joy together
with paper-white petals tucked in a bouquet
Paper-white petals tucked in a bouquet
