Yonder Thy Houses In the South

Yonder thy houses in the south Santa heading from north Grandfather stoking the flames Songs of joy and praise Whiffs of peppermint and mocha Presents under a wreath Flakes melting on palm Earth still and calm Yonder thy bridge in the west Flame in the eyes of a child Drunken and the lost gather round Bitter snow reminiscent of sweet dreams Wishes and prayers of suns return Yet stars only visible in the south
