Christmas around the House

It was weeks before Christmas and outside our house, some lights and a wreath faced away from the south.

While inside the entryway there were some strings, of red and gold plastic on banisters and things.

The stockings were hung by the gas fireplace with care,

with one by the basement door in case Santa comes through there.

Some caterpillars gathered in the room without TV,

and last but not least, we put up a tree.
