Christmas is getting near

ALWAYS....A CHRISTMAS NIGHT

As long as there are pine trees

Growing on a hill,

As long as there are firesides

With a candle on the sill.....

As long as there are reindeer,

Snowflakes glistening white,

As long as there's a Santa Claus

There'll be a Christmas night.

As long as there are stockings

Hanging in a row,

As long as there is holly

And a sprig of mistletoe....

As long as there is tinsel

And wrappings gay and bright,

And chruch bells chime throughout the land,

There'll be a Christmas night.

As long as there are wise men

Who  choose to be star-led,

And loving hearts made ready

To crown the Christ Child head...

As long as happy children

Sing with pure delight

The age old song. "Good Will To Men,"

There'll be a Christmas night.

I like this poem very much. BTW, I was a little worried that you hadn't made an entry in several days. I had no idea you were in the hospital! Hope that awful pain goes away real soon. Take care!
