Amidst the snow-blanketed lanes of Shoup,
Where the old house whispers with chiming bells,
The warmth of Christmas wraps its joyful group,
As stories weave where the heart truly dwells.
By the fire's glow, three generations blend,
Shannon Devlin smiles with a twinkle bright,
She recalls tales where weary paths might end,
And warns of grifters who roam in the night.
Yet laughter dances on cinnamon air,
The timeless magic of loved ones held near,
In the embrace of love, beyond compare,
The Shoup family finds its shelter here.
