Gift-Wrapped Secrets

Where the glow of the season reveals what was once hidden.

πŸŽ„βœ¨πŸ•―οΈβ„οΈ

Red and green flashes, sparkling eyes,
Whispering tales that few dare speak
Bright sparks fill winter skies,
Beneath their glow, a shadow seeps.

πŸŒ™πŸ•―οΈβ„οΈ

Shadows scale the darkened walls
Unopened letters on the mantle;
Confessions fill the quiet hall
Gift-wrapped truths hiding by candles

πŸ”₯πŸ“–β„οΈ

Ember’s glow lights hidden truths
Photos, books beneath dust’s veil;
White snow falling from the roof
Red tiles that covered untold tales

πŸ β„οΈβœ¨

Stories told by a hearth that’s warm
Tales embracing hope and peace
Snow scales soft, the open roof,
Tales, now told, and minds at ease.
