WINTER JOYS
White stars falling gently,
Softly down to earth.
Red fires burning brightly,
In the warm and cozy hearth.
White trees changed to elfin-land,
By red sun's dazzling glow,
Little Robin redbreasts
Hopping in the snow.
Happy children's voices,
Shouting loud with glee,
Oh! the joys of winter
are wonderful to me.
