‘‘Twas two nights before Christmas
When we landed so late
My daughter, wife and I
Festive yet sedate
The airport was packed
No chance of a taxi
But Zacharie met us
Smiling and waving with glee
“It’s such a late hour
You will eat with us please!”
He’d exclaimed as we filled
our bellies with cheese
“The shops will be shut
For Christmas from tomorrow
No worry for tonight
From my cupboard you will borrow”
So laden with potatoes, carrots and bread
With very high spirits we finally went to bed
We explored near Geneva
On cold Christmas Eve
With our hosts recommendations
Being everything of need
It’s a wonderful place;
Gardens, streets and lake
But best of it all
Was the new friend we did make
Would visit again!
Thanks for helping us to have a wonderful Christmas,
David and family
