This time of year I
Often think of friends;
Broken hearts and
Relationships to mend
Eating and talking
Setting around the table
Telling Christmas stories
Of a baby in the stable

Green pine trees with
Red, green, and blue lights
With present there to open
That every one might like
Bitter cold wind
Blowing from the south
Turkey and ham to
Fill everybody’s mouth

Christmas decoration hanging
Tightly on the wall
Dad playing Santa clause
But that’s not all
Setting on the table
Is cookies and milk
Mom got a night gown
Made of pure silk

A star in the sky
Shinning so bright
Eggnog and cinnamon:
And a merry good night
