Tinsel

Decorating the tree; a family ritual Electric lights, ball of color.tinsel applied With surgical percision... A family chore of joy... Generally perfofmed on a Sunday nigth, Accompanied with "the Wizard Of Oz" And on Christmas eve, Laurel and Hardy and "The March Of the Wooden Soldiers", Followed in the evening, With Alistair Simmes 'the Christmas Charol"; The most beloved of the Christmas movies Home made cookies Excitment in the air Anticipation, Family time at it's best. Eggnog, soda, pretzels, coookies... Life was better than good. Life was magical. And the nuclear familiy had it's strongest bonds with thr "stong force" Metaphysical wonders to be sure, Memorieries forever to endure, Love of life and family for-ever-more.
