Counting Down from 25

By Herald Staff

By Marki Lynn Warlow, Ocean City.
Each calendar day opened-provides a chocolate inside
Hanging mistletoe above every door
Is the reason behind what the kisses are for?
Receiving and sending tons of cards
To family and friends both near and far
Intensely decorating every inch to be seen
An overload, of silver and gold, and of course both red and green
Searching tediously for the perfect size tree
Trimming every last branch with tinsel, so it sparkles, evenly
Traditions are fond and memorable ways.
Of how generations to come will celebrate each holiday
Mastering the art of cooking and baking
Deciding what homemade gifts are ideal for making
Amazed by the caroling that’s still door-to-door
It’s the little things in life that make it so much more
Santa and sleigh will soon be on their way
To surprise us all, all Christmas Day
