In a winter wonderland where snowflakes dance, Ab and Mark hold hands, lost in a trance. By the hearth their dreams take gentle flight, With Christmas lights turning the dark to bright. The year ahead dawns with a hopeful gleam, A happy 2025, a shared dream. Tessel the dog prances with bounding joy, Faithful as ever, her spirit can't be coy. With wagging tail and a heart so bold, For Tessel, new stories yet to unfold. In the shimmering pond where reflections play, She swims fanatically on a crisp winter's day. As the New Year chimes, in wonder they bask, Ab, Mark, and Tessel, the moment they grasp. Bound by their wishes, with love so pure, In their shared embrace, they hold the future secure.
