This is a wonderfully reflective free verse poem about the sights and sounds of Christmas and how music and laughter of the season provide hope for a better year to come.
Congrats on winning the contest.

Christmas is sad for some people as they miss loved ones and the year may not have been as happy as expected. I think Christmas is a time to forgive and forget and get ready for a New Year ahead. A fresh start with some enthusiasm for life. I enjoyed your endearing words and welcome you to Fanstory, Merry Christmas, love Dolly x

The title has such a poetic ring to it; "Embers of December". The whole poem brings out the feeling of the warmth that we feel this time of year during the Christmas season.
