“When balmy days are distant dreams
And autumn leaves have flown
December gathers up its warmth
And brings it to the home
Through candlelight and glowing hearth
In pots that gently simmer
And tucked in every cozy nook
We find the warmth of winter.”
Laura Jaworski
Cozy
Cozy is a stack of books
A crackling fire, a comfy nook
A cup of tea, a fresh-baked bread
A puppy snoozing in your bed
Cozy is a strand of lights
That twinkle through a chilly night
A gentle smile, a soothing poem
Cozy is a happy home.

“What is the world
But a moldable place
To create with love
And heal with grace.”

“Tiny acorn
Sweet and round
Alighted on the forest ground
An autumn treat
Or brand-new tree
Which of these will you choose to be?”
Laura Jaworski 🍂
“Autumn wandering
A thousand golden poems
Drift across the sky.”
Laura Jaworski
“The trees
Having through the summer
Watched the gardens grow
Admiring flowerbeds of color
Vivid down below
Decide to join the revelry
And raise the color high
Then with an effervescent wave
Release it to the sky.”
Laura Jaworski
“In wonder and kindness
In goodwill and cheer
Let us step forth together
And begin the new year.”
Laura Jaworski
“Now is the time for quiet wonder
Lit by the luster of candleglow
For all the world is in silent slumber
Tucked in a blanket of silken snow
Now is the time for soft reflection
Lulled by the song of a crackling hearth
For heaven’s light in its sweet perfection
Has lent itself to clothe the earth.”
Laura Jaworski
“Farewell to you, sweet autumn
As leisurely you go
You’ve turned the trees to stately beings
Prepared for winter snow
Farewell to you, sweet grandeur
Until you come again
To drape the earth in golden grace
We’ll wait for you, till then.”
Laura Jaworski
“The world is frosted merrily
The holly wreaths are hung
A fire is crackling in the hearth
With stockings strewn among
So hang your smiles and raise your glass
To all whom you hold dear
Our hearts are filled with joyful praise
For Christmastime is here!”
