Christmas Abecedarian

Amorous is the tingling touch they feel Blooming kisses as flaming as red bells Convey passion in their glowing eyes Directing fantasy-filled thoughts outside Enamored by the heavy snowfall on the elms Farther they vanish into the hushed hills of night Gorgeous and calm is the scenery of pure white Dashing sleights plunge downhill as screams rise Ensuing the feeling of glee in the northern sphere Gorging on almond cookies is heavenly delight Hot chestnuts steaming on logs are tempting Increasing their aroma in rooms and nostrils Jugs with hot chocolate take away all shivers Kettle whistles for grandma's black tea Leaner than anyone she'll be a centenarian Mother prepares a lavish tray of appetizers Neapolitan superb cuisine in every delicious bite Overjoyed by the compliments she has received Pours Asti Spumante* in thin and tall glasses Quetzal in cage watches and chirps for some Raging is the fluttering of wings being ignored Sinking in somber mood he becomes somnolent Time for a caffe macchiato with Panettone* Ultimatum for those dozing off on the sofa Vibrant is the response invigorating their thrill While outside lampposts give off their gleam Xenophobe of a massive storm seems insidious Year is ending in a festive house that loves Christmas Zealous faces look up and ask Jesus for His blessing * Asti Spumante is an Italian white sparkling wine. * Panettone is an Italian sweet bread with candied fruit and raisins.
