Poem -
A Dorchester Christmas
A Dorchester ChristmasÂ
Triple deckers decked in lights
Mostly colors, some just white
Christmas trees all dressed in tinselÂ
Glow at night though curtain windowsÂ
Kids with shovels dot the streets
Digging out from Christmas Eve
Some with smiles, some with frowns
All can’t wait to run back home
In our clan was seven kids
We shared gifts like Irish twinsÂ
Sisters got their stereo
Brothers played their pool table
On Christmas Day in Dorchester
Some gifts came from Globe Santa
Three sisters and four brothersÂ
We had less and more than others

What a beautiful poem Bill. I enjoyed the rhyme scheme. I thought the poem was so coincidental I actually live in Dorchester though I'm sure it's probably nothing like how it used to be. Thank you for sharing your work!
Much appreciated Curious One, we lived on Blue Hill Ave. 1962-65 and Florida Street 1965-68.
