The snowflakes are lovely,
Though 'Snowmen' are few;
Fond mem'ries sustain us,
Now isn't that true?
Recall the huge mantle
All hung with our socks?
We played on the floors
With our dolls and our blocks.
The popcorn we strung wrapped
Around the whole tree;
The games that we played
Aren't on your TV.
We all could play checkers,
Or skate or jump rope;
Our simple lives thrived
On much kindness and hope.
The foods were all splendid--
Sweet holiday fare--
We dine like that daily
With never a care.
The REAL CHRISTMAS taught us
to follow a Star;
We've traveled great pathways
And now here we are.
We sing Alleluias
The praise never ends;
But nothing compares with
The LOVE of our FRIENDS.
We're blest to have found this
Our haven of joy,
God bless you....be thankful
For one tiny Boy."
