little ones listen for sleigh bells...
the smell of fir boughs

Christmas is indeed coming. this poem is a great reminder. I just wish it would get cold enough for Christmas. With the a/c on it is hard to think of sleigh betts.

Oh my gosh, don't remind us so soon . Our snow is finally melting and the icy roads are now bare. A wonderful Haiku in anticipation of the Christmas season. God Bless Phyl
