My Holiday Home

An outside garland green and white across our porch top glows by night. In the yard, heads nod on reindeer! Welcome to my holiday home at this special time of year. Inside my house, see right away the greeting cards that I display on the hall wall, near the mirror. Welcome to my holiday home at this special time of year. Inside the living room, you’ll see - trimmed red and gold - our handsome tree where all our loved ones gather near. Welcome to my holiday home at this special time of year. One table has the manger scene. The shepherds and the Magi lean to worship Him God deemed most dear. Welcome to my holiday home at this special time of year. Another table, fun to view, holds figurines, more than a few! There’s angels, snowmen, Santas here! Welcome to my holiday home at this special time of year. Inside my kitchen, smell the treats! There’s Chex mix and a lot of sweets. Let’s make a toast to Christmas cheer! Welcome to my holiday home at this special time of year. For "HOLIDAY HEARTH" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Linda-Marie Bariana (Hope you don't mind me hauling out this oldie, Linda, inspired by you before!!)
