ice-skating, visiting a Christmas fair, a movie, etc. Take them out
to see local Christmas light displays. Have fun and see how many displays you can
see throughout your city. Then grab some hot chocolate or coffee and blankets and
head to a secluded, scenic nightspot to cuddle and talk.
Sensual Night For Two Setting
The following idea is a setting for whatever you wish to use it for. You may want to
create a winter picnic for two, or plan a sensual evening. First, you'll need quite a
few white sheets that can be damaged. You can buy these pretty inexpensively at
any discount store. Just make sure to wash them first so they are soft. You'll also
need white Christmas lights, tea light candles and red rose petals from a florist.
Before your evening of romance, lay out the white sheets across your bed and the
entire floor so that it doesn't show. Then string lights in as many places as possible
in the room, including on the floor. Sprinkle the rose petals over the bed and on the
sheets on the floor. Be careful with these as they can stain. Then place the tea lights
throughout the room. Right before you show your surprise, light the tea lights. You
now have a winter wonderland setting to use however you wish!
A Timeless Treasure
Draw a picture that symbolizes your relationship. It doesn't matter if you think you
can't draw. Whatever comes from the heart is all the matters. Just make sure it's big
enough to frame. Once you're done, take the drawing to have it framed, matted and
prepared to hang. When it's done, write a dedication on the back of the framed
picture to your sweetheart.
A Timeless Treasure Collage
Using the same idea above, instead of drawing a picture, you might want to create a
memory collage. Glue old letters, cards, movie tickets, pressed flowers, etc. to a
piece of canvas paper. Then have it framed using the above ideas.

A Christmas Wish
by Jeanette Weaver



Christmas is near and we are apart,
But the love for you I hold in my heart.
A walk in the snow together again,
Your presence is here, it's on the wind.

Stars are twinkling, I remember your eyes,
The sparkle and shine as you gaze into mine.
Moonbeams extend to hold in the light,
All that's before me, including myself.

I close my eyes, I can feel your arms,
Reaching around me, holding me tight.
A breath of air blows past my ear,
Or was that a kiss from your sensuous lips.

A wish on a star, a prayer to God,
A letter to Santa, I want you here.
The only gift I cherish and crave,
Is you beside me on Christmas Eve.

I gaze out my window, it's nearly midnight,
Will my dreams come true, was I good enough?
A knock on my door, I pause, I gasp;
My heart is aflutter, could it be?

I hurry to open, what do I see?
A dream come true, cause you're here with me.
