Sing a Song of Christmas - the Six Senses Part 2

What Makes Christmas Sweet  (Taste)

It’s taffy, chewy in my teeth,
And chocolate melting on my tongue,
The crunch of candy bars like Heath;
It’s taffy, chewy in my teeth,
Bright gumdrops from a homemade wreath,
Or candy canes from tree limbs hung!
It’s taffy, chewy in my teeth
And chocolate melting on my tongue.


I Love  (Touch)

I love to feel the fire’s warm glow
And touch your face by its soft light.
To be back home, out of the snow,
I love to feel the fire’s warm glow,
Your breath against my cheek and know
You’ll be with me through all the night.
I love to feel the fire’s warm glow
And touch your face by its soft light.

Why do I keep singing, 'Sing a song of sixpence, a pocket full of rhymes, Petals words are ringing, like Christmas bell chimes', lol. 2/3 of the way there. Take care, Richard
