My sister Vi and I had
Three feet of snow
We had nowhere
At all to go
We sat by
The warm fire
For adventure we had
A strong desire
We ventured outside
You see
A winter wonderland
Greeted Vi and me
Everything was under
A blanket of snow
It was so beautiful
And quite a show
Millions of diamonds
Dazzled in the light
It was a cold, dark
Winter night
Homes were decorated for Christmas
My favorite was the colored lights
Vi and I admired them all
We loved the holiday sights
We arrived back home
Vi cooked fresh kielbasa
It’s nice to eat familiar food
It brought to my mind much nostalgia
We went to bed
It was now Christmas Eve, late at night
We awoke at 3 in the morning
We looked out our windows at quite a sight
It was Santa Claus himself
His sled had every type of gift
We ran downstairs
We were very swift
Beneath our beautiful Christmas tree
There was a mountain of presents
We shook some of the gifts
Trying to guess their contents
We couldn’t open the packages
Until our parents awoke
We jumped into our beds and fell back asleep
I wished for music CDs of the Baroque
