I saw with my little eye-
A piece of pumpkin pie.
.
I saw with my little eye-
A piece of chocolate pie.
.
I saw with my little eye-
A piece of mincemeat pie.
.
I saw with my little eye-
A piece of lemon pie.
.
I saw with my little eye-
A piece of pecan pie.
.
I saw with my little eye-
And decided that I could
not make up my mind, as
to which type was my
favorite kind of pie.

The family gathered around-
And much singing was found.
.
.
Mama played the piano-
All the Christmas songs, in
the room, had a Heavenly
flow.
.
.
Father had cut down the tree,
earlier in the day-
And, we decorated it in our
usual way.
.
.
Filled with candles, and of course,
the candy cane-
Not to take a bite, for the children,
was quite a pain.
.
.
There wasn’t anything, yet, under
the tree-
For in the morning, is when that
would all be.
.
.
Mama read The Night Before Christmas,
to one and all-
And, fast asleep, we did all fall.
.
.
To dream of the one who would come
to our house, in the night-
All was well, all felt so right.
.
.
And, in the morning when we were
awake-
Many sacks, for all the children, were
under the tree, for goodness sake.
.
.
Santa had brought us all apples, oranges,
and a bit of candy-
This Chirstmas morning, turned out to be
so dandy.
.
.
As an added surprise-
Mama had made some cranberry pies.
.
.
For us to eat after our Christmas church
service-
The Baby Jesus in His cradle, in the manger,
we would not miss.
.
.
As we later sat and ate some ham and turkey,
and of course, cranberry pie-
We knew we were lucky, for we had
managed the whole year, to get by.
.
.
We always had something to eat, and
we had our health-
We lived the good life, despite any
wealth.
.
.
For we had each other, to love and to
count on-
We knew this fact, whether it be sunset,
or dawn.
.
.
A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,
is what we had-
To venture into the New Year, we were so
glad.
.
.
The family gathered around-
And much singing was found.
