Merry Solstice Bells

Sung to the tune of "Winter Wonderland" Merry Solstice Bells Deck the halls, hang some holly ‘Cause it’s time for sport and folly Winter is here Let’s be of good cheer Ringing out the Merry Solstice Bells Gather ‘round the blazing fire Tell the wind what you desire Dancing with glee While trimming a tree Ringing out the Merry Solstice Bells We will go a-wassailing together Wishing everyone we meet much joy Rosy cheeked, we don’t mind the weather Singing now for every girl and boy Even though it is snowin’ Still our hearts are a-glowin’ The stars shine so bright On this happy night Ringing out the Merry Solstice Bells A beautiful evening in December Drinking cider, mulled wine and beer Let’s toast to the sun’s dying ember Knowing that it soon will reappear Even though it’s so cold dear Say goodbye to the old year The best’s yet to come Play the fife, beat a drum Ringing out the Merry Solstice Bells For Deborah Guzzi's Holiday Songs in Poem Form contest
