claiming y

dream.
E for an eggnog with nutmeg and cream.
F is a fir tree made festive and bright by

things.

and hemlock boughs hung on the
ingroom walls.

digo ponds in icicle weather.
J is the Jewel colored jellies and jams
served with turkeys and geese and the
clove -studded hams.

and Blitzen, flies around the...
World like the down of a thistle when
Saint Nick cracks his whip and gives
them a whistle.

friends and from cousins.
Y is a yule candle lighted each year, and
the yawning of youngsters as bedtime
draws near.

looking as if - if he could - say "Merry
Christmas to all and to all a good day ! "
