I remember Yuletides of long ago,
When the Christ babe was not known to me-
But we worshipped the land,
Mother Earth and Brother Tree.
I remember a time when the light sprang clearly
Then Rome with its' god of wrath and vengeance,
Others fought quiet and long,
Yet whichever path we follow,
And so upon a Christmas Eve

From the quiet pool and raging sea.
Was ordered for me and mine.
And in that time most did succumb,
And later, did resign.
To keep the sacred vow.
The Romans then did think it good
Tradition to allow and
To mingle and sit on their god's brow.
God, the Light is good,
And the stable where the Christ child lay -
It was made of wood.
Remember well the Yuletide.
For Light and God were even then,
Always side by side.
