A cedar bough,
A candle lit,
A rocking chair
In which to sit,
A glowing hearth,
A loving smile,
Companionship
To pass the while,
An open book,
A kitten's purr,
Simmering pot
To sniff and stir,
A baby's laugh,
A grandma's tale,
A dust of snow
On front-porch rail,
A whispered prayer,
A whistled carol,
A biting wind
And warm apparel,
A childhood game,
A lifelong friend,
A cheerful card
To sign and send ---
These simple joys
Are much the reason
For celebrating
The Christmas season.
