Christmas Scintilla

Christmas scintilla dressed in Holiday cheer 
Merry Christmas has become something dear
Though Santa is sprucing up his new red suit,   
its good old St. Nick that I loved, in my youth
Yuletide greetings coming from a lit computer 
Santa used to fly on a sled  and not a scooter  
I'll take an old fashioned Christmas of beauty 
over a modern Christmas, of gifts and duty ...

Modern Christmases don't seem much like Christmas anymore; way too commercial. Happy holidays to your and yours.
