Christmas Cheer Recipe
Take a bushel of tinsel, sprinkle well
throughout the house.
Add two dozen stars and one graceful
Christmas tree.
Take a generous spray of mistletoe,
an armload of holly, and a full
measure of snow laid in curved hills
along the windowsills.
Toss in a Christmas carol, and season well
with good will and friendly laughter.
Light the candles, "one for adoration,
two for celebration."
Let the first burn brightly, and may those
you love be near.
The yield: one happy Christmas.
- Clementine Paddleford
Merry Christmas
&
Happy New Year
