 Thank you for calling dollar story presented by officer children's services San Francisco Public Library These are three short Christmas poems Through the Holly reef by Effie Lee Newsom. I peep once through a Holly reef. What do you think I saw? The round red face of Santa Claus with cherries in his jar His nose was just a grape bond bond his curls coconut shreds. His lips were smiling I could see in Holly Berry reds The peppermint candy March by Effie Lee Newsom the pepper peppermint candy March when gaily up the street all Dressed in white and red each with the lime drop head and bond bonds like brown shoes for feet Each band man blew a little coil made a silver wrapping foil I hope they got far on their way because at ending of the day I'm sure there isn't any doubt the hungry mice would all come out God's Christmas tree by Eve Lynn We all are a part of the self-same tree the bark and the limbs are all akin and the leaves are expressive Of something within the roots deep down from the good brown earth give forth their little or their great work Blood one red blood are we like the sap that flows from the self-same tree From the fountain of life superb and free all men are a branch of the mother tree Who loves and nurtures humanity? Thank you again for calling down the story. Please hang up the telephone
