Holiday Season Cheer

Joy and laughter filled the air,

As we decked the halls with care.

Good tidings and cheer,

For the holiday season is here.

Surprise, surprise, surprise! Today was definitely a surprise. When I woke up in the morning and had my breakfast, I followed my normal routine of going to the backyard garden for some nature therapy.

I always loved this time of day when the world was asleep and only I was awake to witness the wonders of Mother Nature. It was like having a secret adventure. Bundled up in warm layers, I stepped outside. However, the morning serenity was absent on this particular day.

That's because I was not the only one awake. From my vantage point, I could see neighboring backyards that were usually empty at this time of day were now filled with kids pulling wagons of trinkets and putting up decorations. The high-pitched chitter-chatter of their voices filled the air, creating a lively atmosphere that was quite different from the usual peace and quiet of the morning.

It wasn't a bad change to start the day with such high-energy vibes, especially since it was the holiday season. So, I went inside to grab a few trinkets of my own to join in the decorating.

Good tidings to all!
