In Des Moines, where the snowflakes waltz, Gino and Nora frolic, their hearts alight, While the sky blushes with December's pulse, As Christmas blooms in the serene night. Santa's sleigh whispers through the chilly air, Leaving behind dreams that sparkle and soar, Jake and Emmy laugh, joy beyond compare, Their spirits warmed by the yuletide's lore. Amidst the glow of twinkling lights, Paws pitter-patter, tails dance in delight, In the heart of winter’s gentle embrace, Love and wonder fill the brisk, starry space.
