Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Christmas of Long Ago and Other Poems The Christmas of Long Ago Oh, the rhymes and chimes and merry times Of the Christmas of long ago, When oak logs crackled on the broad hearth And the fields were mantled with snow. The walls festooned with holly and vine And berries melting red, While mistletoe hung in waxlike green From the chandelier overhead. The board was laid with damask rare, The candles with prisms shone, And rippling voices of children played With the treble of age now gone. In quadrille and Virginia reel Fiddling Ned swayed to and fro, And couples true to their warm, young blood Drifted under the mistletoe. With waspy waists and dainty feet, In trailing brocade they go, Like graceful vines at the blooming time, Tripping the lightsome toe. Oh, the world is running away to-day, - See the crimson life stream flow, - My heart turns back with a holy peace To the Christmas of long ago.
