ponderosa pines scent the air
Christmas lights strung across the city square,
welcoming in the Christmas spirit
all the store windows are filled with toys and gifts,
everyone is spreading well cheer, this time of the year.
Bustling cities tucked in under white blankets ,
Christmas trees with ornaments and twinkle light shines
its delight unto to each one.
Christmas morning there was heard, the uncorking
of eggnog and unwrapping of toys .
and good cheer to one and all, merry Christmas.

You've captured it, my friend, and it takes me back to my early youth, the magic of the release of all things delightful! I was very poor as boy, and I used to peer into the store windows and wish. Still, I was joyful, it was Christmas!

Couldn't agree with the poem more, although the celebration of old St. Nick has more or less replaced its original intent. Still, Christmas is a special time of the year.
