Merry Christmas!

Dear Christmas,
Thank you for bells and birds and trees.

For candy canes, and banners and glee.

Thanks for the cookies, cheese, and chocolate I ate,

thank you Christmas for friends good and great.
Beth who saved this Penguin from a sorrowful fate,

and MaryAnn who made this book, that girl can create!

My wishes are many and merry though they are late!
