Sugerplums (The Christmas Poem) Poem by Julia Boon

Thick snow falls from the sky,
Dance, sing and shout out OH MY!
Because wonder is all around you see,
After all, Christmas it be.

Let the bells ring and the carollers sing!
Deck the halls and flock the malls.
Load your arms with gifts and lift;
The spirits of your fellow man!

Occupy your mind with thoughts of meats and sweets!
Of presents yet to come,
Sweet plums and noisy drums.
With Candy canes and snow driven lanes!
Around a tall green pine, I ask, can I call you mine?
Because wonder is all around you see,
After all, Christmas it be.
