Family man

I found myself at winter
In a far more different place
I saw the lights and the fireplace
And all the kids at play
I heard the sound of their sweet laughter
And it melted my heart inside
I saw the food upon the table
Along with the beer and wine
And I saw my family happy
And life for them was fine
And that made me feel so good as I closed my eyes that night
And they found me when the snow thawed
Curled up sleeping in my box
Hard times had befallen me and my family like my life I lost.
