Mantle of Green

Poinsettias a crown

Branches of Pine- Needles

Are Laid all around

The flowing crepe bows

Dressed in dyes of bright red

Are glued to the mirror

Above the fireplace head

Each card received

Placed on the mantle with care

Has come from those

Whose Philosophy we share

A common vein of peace and joy

It is in his voice that we all rejoice

With red candles lit

Feelings of Peace in the air

Flakes of snow on the window

Its so calm out there

A vision of crimson and ashes

From legs of brown

Swirling white smoke

From Chimney bounds

Mincemeat pis are ready for heat

So we before Church can eat

At this time it must be expressed

Thank you our saviour

Whose name is Jesus

His birthday sanctions our home each year

With many blessings, joy and good cheer.
