Once upon a Christmas night
The countryside, all soft and white
Barren fields, awash in light
From a star above, so very bright
*
All the animals gathered round
All the animals gathered round
For in the woods, many critters abound
A tiny kitten lies on the ground
Weary from his travels, found
*
A path to a cottage on the hill
A path to a cottage on the hill
Following the sparrows trill
A dish of food upon the sill
As happily, he ate his fill
*
Then the door opened wide
Then the door opened wide
And much to his wondrous surprise
"Welcome," said the ones inside
"Yes, the animals were your guide"
*
"Climb upon the windowsill
Look upon the distant hill
Outside in the snow, so still
The animals all wish you well"
*
"There is a bed, by the Christmas tree
"There is a bed, by the Christmas tree
From hunger and cold, you now are free
We know, you surely will agree
Our furrever kitten, you will be "

Oh, what a beautiful poem. It definitely brought tears to my eyes. And I love the pictures, especially the one at the top. It just looks like a perfect picture for Christmas. The innocence and wonder of all animals.
