Cider Doughnut Mountain Man

Mommy, Mommy it's the cider doughnut mountain man From when we went trick or treating , Remember? The Lincoln Log cabin in the woods way up on the mountain Hot cider with a cinnamon stick Chocolate glazed doughnuts Can we go there for Christmas? Please Jimmy, shush! Your embarrassing Mommy He'll hear You We're going to Grandpa and Grandma's for Christmas As I turned around ; a little hand waved to me , in glee The Christmas Spirit sparkling in his eyes. "Merry Christmas, Jimmy , Merry Christmas Dedicated to Jimmy Cahill ( 8 years old ) Author's note Mountain man is not size it is where I live

I love this little picture in time! Very sincere and clean, and brings a smile to my face. My favorite part is just Jimmy's enthusiasm and all of the scenetd details-- the woods, the cinnamon, the sugary warm donuts, ... nicely done. Nykki
