I was walking down the road
Just as happy as can be
And all the snow upon the trees
Was glistening back at me!

I saw a happy squirrel
As he paused upon a rail
And chattered 'bout some nut he'd found
And pointed with his tail!

I saw a pretty sparrow
As she perched upon a wire
She sang a song ( I sang along! -
We made a pretty choir! )

The squirrel conducted from a branch
Just as the song began -
"Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas!"
Did you hear us while we sang?

We had a happy party
As we danced around the tree
And we wished you Merry Christmas!
Just as Merry as can be!

Kevin -

This has a lovely lilting cadence to it.
What a pleasant Christmas morning find.
