C heer fills lover’s hearts at sight of

H opeful children eying the

R ibbons of red, blue, green as

I magination sparks fantasies…

S pirit of giving permeates the house as

T insel reflects a psychedelic smorgasbord…

M agic flows like wine as

A ngelic choir on high

S ings praises

E very ear strains to hear …

V igil set by chimney

E verybody eager for morn

Acrostic
