A Fine Winter

My sister Vi and I
Sat down for some tea
It was chai for her
And Darjeeling for me

We engaged in
Quite an enjoyable conversation
We talked for hours
It was great communication

Then we played
A game of Scrabble
It was so much fun
Next, we read the Bible

It was a chilly
December day
Christmas was only
Two days away

We walked around
The park
We went home
When it got dark

Vi cooked us
A big batch of chili
We pet a Golden Retriever
It licked our fingers, so frisky

We ate dinner
Then retired to our beds
And rested our
Weary heads

Christmas would
Be here soon
Outside and shining
Was the moon
