Nice capture of the Christmas feeling, especially that one which should inspire us to do selfless acts more often than once a year
Cheers,

Just found out where I had seen those boots before...

A painting by Van Gogh (where you inspired?):



Vincent Van Gogh
Boots with Laces
David Stone

Unlace my tired walking boots
And ease off my traveling pack.
My feet are red like guava fruits
But don't rival the pain in my back.

I leave them in the sun to dry,
My socks I leave as well.
I've traveled miles underneath this sky
And barely lived to tell.

My tales are stories of faraway lands
And phantom ships of night.
I'll tell you of beaches and their sands
With the moon's immaculate light.

My friend, sit back and soak in the sun
Listen, I'll tell you no lie.
I've been to the land where the birds can run
And only the people can fly.

One pair of boots, but boots that are tired,
At my age my feet are the same.
From here it looks like they both have retired,
Casualties of God's wicked game

Great composition and mood!....It also reminds me of Van Gogh!
