Silver Bells

Listen for those silver bills!
Watch kids wake-up with a rush.
Dash down the stairs full of mush.
Observe their expressions and eyes as tears start to well.
Opening gifts!
Jumping for joy!
Playing with all those wonderful new toys!
Trucks, boats and games for boys!
Dolls, make-up, and dresses for girls!
Watch them give their new toys a whirl!
What’s that sound?
That’s coming from all around?
Why it’s sleigh bells!
And something more…
Silver bells from far and round!
