......An Old Fashioned Christmas
Crystaline laughter, greetings, and snowflakes.
Tinselled trees draped with ribbons, laces, and
Bows. Tiny, sparkling glasses of sherry.
Ladies in delicate chiffon. Berry
Woven wreaths of holly, juniper, wound
With silvered streamers, curling round the door
Open to all, this season of Good Will.
Winter not allowed, yet the outside chill
Accompanies merry, homeward bound guests.
Blazing fireplaces wait patiently to
Warm and cheer those opening the door. Frost
Breaths soon disappear. Parties are hosted
Each night of this Season. Friends not alone,
Family gathered again all at home.
