Fuzzy red mitts and old scarves for wraps
a carrot for my nose and two button eyes
Christmas carols, choclate drinks and naps
and a whole lot of home made mince pies
A little red wagon to carry me around
church bells ringing from a faring place
Carollers, laughter and joyful sounds
and a wholesome family to say grace
Frosty the snowman with a nice big grin
and mayhap a little tug at that old gin
Christmas refinement without fanfare
and a mistletoe kiss, with a dare.
Certainly embodies the spirit from old to young. Although I don't think the very young imbibe in gin. ;-) As for mistletoe, it always seemed contrived to me, like a blind date. I much preferred a kiss given honestly in a closet or out away from the crowd, unless it was from your chosen one and then, done in public confirming your love to everyone.
From the Caribbean Sea to Machu Picchu in Peru, and from birds to flowers and butterflies, Reflections and Treasured Wonders offers a collection of images gathered from around the world.
