Then brings them back someday.
When all that

“Ready for Christmas,” she said with a sigh
As she gave a last touch to the gifts piled high.
Then wearily sat for a moment and read
Till soon, very soon, she was nodding her head.
Then quietly spoke a

Her life has just begun!”
TODAY is Coronation Day:
For her, the
