As a child, I remember my days back home
It was Deep Creek, Wisconsin being the fun times on the Farm where I roamed
Holiday times with the Winter fallen Snow
It was the cold wind with soothing warmth of love
Home was everything to think of
I remember the Hot Chocolate being refreshing accompanied with Marshmallows
We had a Fireplace
Because I lived on a farm, we chopped our Christmas Tree and decorated it in the house
The Christmas Tree would be placed on the right side
I had a Union Pacific Passenger Train Toy set, and it added the effect going around the Christmas Tree
It would be my Father and I together admiring the whole scene of the Christmas Tree and Train set
You can imagine the joy on my face in the Christmas season
All for good reason
My Dad told me stories from Charles Dickens, “The Christmas Carol”
The story was an awkward twist, but the holiday feel was no hit and miss
I would fall asleep, and Mom and Dad would give me a kiss
When Morning came, I would rush downstairs to see what Santa left
It would be gifts of all kinds from clothes to toys
The holiday wouldn’t mean anything without the warmth of love in being loved by a family
Those were my memories
They cherished well among the stars twinkled along with the Moon smile
A lifetime of dreams
Tomorrow enriched with living day by day
My Parents have passed away
But I remember them every day
Yet my heart says I was blessed
Holiday thoughts into one stocking
My life throughout
Holiday thoughts
Holiday ** and Snow
A child’s spirit putting you in the know.
