 Artist: Albert Chevallier Tayler Christmas Love In ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ Intemperate winds may wail and storm, But gathered around fireplace we're safe and warm. Imbibing hot cocoa, and steaming mulled wine, We’re happy and mellow and feeling so fine. We’re filled with the spirit of camaraderie, In this family/friend love-in around Christmas tree. We sing of the birth of the little babe Jesus, Of all of His blessings before he did leave us. We rejoice in Our Saviour who redeemed us of sin, In the hearts of all Christians, his Light burns within. Thank you, Dear Jesus, for saving mankind. We’ll forever be grateful to the end of All time. |

I love Christmas! I love the carols and the peppermint candy canes and the carols and the family together and the carols and friends and the carols and warm banana bread and the carols. And I love this one too. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Linda, This piece is B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. The picture fits perfectly with the words. :-) Merry Christmas my friend. Ps. the picture also reminds me of the one Ma & Pa Kettle movie I have. |

iliana love ~ Yes, our home is festive and joyous and full of love and merriment. My daughters have tastefully decorated our home beyond belief. It is downright magical. Christmas music is piped throughout the house and every one is humming and singing along. We experience the season on all levels. From the religious aspects of it to the friendship and sharing aspects ~ as well as the glitz and gift aspects! 'Tis indeed, a time of merriment and joy! Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones, from my home to yours. Happy hugs and merry smiles, Love Linda |
