In a cottage by the snow, Nora and Gino, tails aglow, Bound through fields with laughter clear, Bringing warmth and holiday cheer. Jake and Emmy, hand in hand, Wander through a winterland, Reflecting on a year so bright, Moments stitched with pure delight. By the fire, embers dance, As whispers twirl in joyous trance; In their hearts, a story spun— Two people, two dogs, and dreams begun.
