Christmas was one of Marie Dodd Collard's favorite times of year. She wrote at least one poem to share with her friends and family each year. This is a collection of those poems and others written for the holiday.

Marie Dodd Collard always said her greatest hobby was writing poetry. She never bragged or admitted to being a poet, but she was gifted to write on any subject at any time, even in the middle of the night. If inspiration came – no matter when – that’s when her pen got busy. Some of her poems are tributes, some memorials, many done by request, some for those she loved, others about places she’d been or lived or imagined to be. In other words she wrote history. This is her fourth and final book of poems. Written between 1995 and 2011, they are a tribute to her life, friends and neighbors while living in Windom and Honey Grove, Texas.
