Tinsel
Decorating the tree; a family ritual
Electric lights, ball of color.tinsel applied
With surgical percision...
A family chore of joy...
Generally perfofmed on a Sunday nigth,
Accompanied with "the Wizard Of Oz"
And on Christmas eve,
Laurel and Hardy and "The March Of the Wooden Soldiers",
Followed in the evening,
With Alistair Simmes
'the Christmas Charol";
The most beloved of the Christmas movies
Home made cookies
Excitment in the air
Anticipation,
Family time at it's best. Eggnog,
soda, pretzels, coookies...
Life was better than good.
Life was magical.
And the nuclear familiy
had it's strongest bonds
with thr "stong force"
Metaphysical wonders to be sure,
Memorieries forever to endure,
Love of life and family for-ever-more.
