The smell of chestnuts in the air, the crackling of the beautiful fire for the holidays that what brings me comfort.
Wrapped in a blanket full of love, the warm around me you know could see.
As you can only feel it within me.
The joy in everyone's face in hopes of greater joy.
The roasting of marshmallows in the fire, with chocolate and crackers not far.
The spread of join the smell of chocolate and baking in the other room.
There is no feeling like that.
The feeling of being home surrounded by love all around.
This brings me comfort right now.
A Christmas spirit around us you can truly feel the spirit of Saint Nicholas all around the town.
Soft gentle snow follow from the sky, painting a perfect picture of all around.
You never see it coming, but this is how comfort truly feels.
