People, look east. The time is near
Of the crowning of the year.
Make your house fair as you are able,
Trim the hearth and set the table.
People, look east and sing today:
Love, the guest, is on His way.
Stars, keep the watch. When night is dim
One more light the bowl shall brim,
Shining beyond the frosty weather,
Bright as sun and moon together.

Wishing you all a peaceful, joy-filled and merry Christmas, and a wonderful, book-filled New Year. :)

Merry Christmas, Audrey!
That's one of my favorite carols (or technically an Advent song?) - in any case, I love it. Merry Christmas to you too - I hope it brings you some good books!
Have a very merry Christmas, Audrey!
That is lovely, and I wish the same to you.
Merry Christmas, Audrey!
Lovely indeed. Wishing you a joy-filled, peaceful, restful Christmas season, and a happy new year! God bless.... :)
What a beautiful poem and accompanying photograph! I can see your hearth is well prepared. God bless you, Audrey, and have a very Merry Christmas!
Christmas Joy to you!
