A Christmas Garden

My garden is silent on Christmas Day,

on Christmas Day,

sweet Christmas Day.

Thick snow on the fountain in hushed masses lay

and whispers of a virgin and the holy babe.

The cardinal preens in his robe so red

while icicle halos grace St. Joseph's head.

See how the squirrel bows to pray

on Christmas Day,

mild Christmas Day.

And I from my cozy kitchen can see

how Nature proclaims the child's majesty.

I spy a bright crown of green and red

and quietly bow my stubborn head.

Now Peace wraps me in the winter sun's ray

on Christmas Day,

blessed Christmas day.
