Baking Cookies

Holiday cookies at our house;

A traditional affair.

To see them stacked from door to door

And floor to ceiling isn't rare.

 

Whether plain and basic,

Or decorated with a flair,

Each is made from start to finish

With our tender loving care.

 

Is it worth the effort?

Is it worth the wear and tear?

Is there any satisfaction

When we offer up our fare?

 

With all the people waiting

We would be remiss to dare

To call off our yearly Christmas

Cookie bake extraordinaire.
