FESTIVAL TIME

Excitement is daily building for its festival time
Giving gifts that sparkle with cards that greet in rhyme
An ever green tree adorned with candles burning bright
The fire of Willow burns in happiness on Yuletide night

Anticipation is nightly growing soon the solstice will be here
The moon in the northern sky is glowing lifting lowly cheer
A celebration cake made with the water of life
In Temple-Athea by the musicians wife

Festival of merry celebration amidst the coldest moon
Bring love to all along this path from Tarbert to Macroom
A log for the fire the Holly wreath
First footing ember from underneath
