TWO WATERCOLORS: ANN DANCING, AROUND A CHRISTMAS TREE 1932 , 1939 by
Waldo Peirce (American, 1884–1970)
My mother, Joan, wrote poetry starting at an early age. Her mature verse has recently been published in Another Troy. For holiday fun, here is one from when she was aged 10 in 1932. Enjoy!
Christmas
Christmas is a happy day,
Everyone so glad and gay.
Toys and dolls and boxes, too,
A Merry Christmas to you and you!
