It is a simple scene from long ago
One devoid of evergreens and snow
No reindeer near the manger rest
No Santa on his midnight quest
A simple stable behind an inn
A squalid place to birth in
But that is how it was that night
And not a Black Friday anywhere in sight

Very nice – a reminder of the simple meaning of Christmas.
