Shall We Peek Inside?

   Four little ones live here, and after cups
of hot chocolate with marshmellows,
they will, along with mother and father,
decorate the tree with cherished and
collected special ornaments.
Stockings dangle from a mantel where
there will be no fire in the fireplace. 
There instead, a
flat screen television is tuned into a Hallmark
Christmas movie.
The cottage is warm and toasty, outside
snow is falling.
-
The holly's up,
the house
is all bright,
The tree
is ready,
the candles
alight;
Rejoice and
be glad,
all children
tonight.
~From an old Carol

Slowly but surely that
Christmas spirit is packing it's
way into my heart....Dee Dee
