An Old-Fashioned Christmas Get-Together

Eggnog, Santas on every corner, and a yuletide
Home front getting set for friends and family
To share in the most ingratiating warmth
And time-honored festivities. 

A knock on the door, then happy relatives
Usher in their daintily clad, playful children; 
Then, more familiar faces with clusters
Of gifts and some tasteful, housewarming embellishments. 

A friendly, joyous atmosphere overflowing
With engaging conversations
And wondrous chit-chat
Surround the lovely and decorated home,
A home of holiday greetings, inviting celebrations,
Splendored gift-giving,
And happy times for all.
