If good St. Nicholas sheuld come Accross the whitened roofs to-night, A host of treasures bringing from His distant Castle of Delight ; If he should come, as once he came, And at my chimney-top draw rein, That I my dearest wish might name As if I were a child again : Of all the good and gracious store, Wherewith the hearts of men he cheers, One thing alone I d covet more Then all the gifts of all the years ; One thing could give the Christmas bells The sweetness of their old refrain, And fill the night with fairy spells. As if I werea child again. What matters it, dear love of mine ? ‘That you were only eight or so, And | a little lad of nine, (bat night beneath the mistletoe ? The magic of it lingers yet, And all the waiting and the pain At thought thereot I can forget, As if I were a child again. Once more, as in the long ago, On Uhristmas eve with you to stand Alone beneath the mistletoe, To see your eyes to touch your hand: Ah, could the Saint but grant this, 1 would not say. with fine disdain, “T think I’m ‘most t As if I were a child again. —Guy Wetmore Carryl, me 7 + a 72 © old vO AIDS, Father Christmas. ‘ Christmas, Father CHristitias: Is this you with Vout pack ? You've been a while youl And a burden on your back : A million toys for children, And joys for older folk, And the merry heart is yours, for all Your gifts are all bespoke. upon way Oh, Christmas Father Christmas, Had you a thought of me, When you came through the deep green wood And found the fair green tree That blossoms out with tapers Like stars that twinkle bright, To show the path to sailor-men Who plough the seas at night ? If once you thought of me then You've brought my true love home. God grant it be that never more My true love hence may roam ! And Christmas, Father Christmas, Pray give us trom your pack The one sweet heavenly gift of peace You never can take back. Alice Evans in Harper’s Bazar, A Merrie Christmas.
