All Things Christmas

















 It is the time to praise the Babe
 who brought in cheer to the somber chill
 and thereon began 'Cristes Mæsse'
 and we shall rejoice for it's Chistmas time

 I long to bring the fir tree home
 And grace the nook that lies bare
 bells, lights and tinsels adorn
 O the joys of a blessed season

 I dream to wink at that jolly old elf 
 huffing and puffing as he hollers in
 I crave to hear the peal of bells 
 as Dasher n Dancer prance 'n tinkle

 I wait to hang a stocking there
 that he shall fill with gifts of love 
 my stocking fillers he knows best
 are bounties of joys for them I love

 I fancy not of gems and riches
 all I seek is love galore
 a season full of mirth and gaiety
 one that brings in joyous hopes

 I set on to fill my pad with greens
 a mistletoe moment and holly wreaths
 pots of poinsettias and rose blooms
 O how flushed is the beauty of joy

 I ache to sit by the hearth’s glow
 and sing aloud the tunes of bliss
 come and join, my loved ones
 it's you I seek to flux the freeze 
   
 I pine to huddle in the ardor of love 
 gleams and beams to cling 'n coddle
 a time for togetherness and for joys
 as Christmas carols the chorus croon

 Ring in the joy of red and green
 let's jingle and jangle this Christmas in
