Merry and Bright

The red of Christmas, bold and bright,
A beacon in the winter night.
The holly's berries, cardinal's cheer,
A splash of warmth as snow draws near.
Candy canes and ribbons swirl,
A festive treat for boys and girls.
A Santa suit, a glowing flame,
Red whispers joy, it calls by name.

In every heart, a spark is spread,
The love of Christmas, painted red.
