Frosty
days and ice-still nights,
Fir trees trimmed with tiny lights,
Sound of sleigh bells in the snow,
That was Christmas long ago.
Fir trees trimmed with tiny lights,
Sound of sleigh bells in the snow,
That was Christmas long ago.
Tykes
on sleds and shouts of glee,
Icy-window filigree,
Sugarplums and candle glow,
Part of Christmas long ago.
Icy-window filigree,
Sugarplums and candle glow,
Part of Christmas long ago.
Footsteps
stealthy on the stair,
Sweet-voiced carols in the air,
Stocking hanging in a row,
Tell of Christmas long ago.
Sweet-voiced carols in the air,
Stocking hanging in a row,
Tell of Christmas long ago.
Starry
nights so still and blue,
Good friends calling out to you,
Life, so fact, will always slow…
For dreams of Christmas long ago.
Good friends calling out to you,
Life, so fact, will always slow…
For dreams of Christmas long ago.

I love Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I assume you're the poet. :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Jo-Anne - I remember my South African Christmases ... at least it was warm ... usually too hot - but certainly different ... and this was fun to see and read - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine Christmas in shorts by the bar-b-que. That would be so strange to me, even though we have places in the southern United States where they have Santa's in shorts. I'm a snow girl! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for trying to help me get in the spirit... just not feeling it yet.
ReplyDeleteLove our Christmas hot, doesn't seem like Christmas unless it is.
ReplyDeleteThat poem really captures the spirit of the season.
