Christmas Windows - Old Phantom Christmas

Old Phantom Christmas Coming through my window How silently he steals Past my bed posts Through my bedroom door Down the stairs and Now there's music Distant music I swear I'm up and creeping Through my bedroom door Past a Fairy on the stairs Old Phantom Christmas Stuffing all our stockings Hanging silver tinsel on the tree Now I hear them clopping Those restless reindeer while Old Phantom Christmas Blesses me

Beyond enchanting. I am a child again. You are digging deep into memory and capturing it magically. So loving the wonder of your spirit here. Love, Shar
