Christmas Past 2009, 13

Cloves, as you stick them into the ham for an extra punch.
Holding your breath, as you hope for what you get.
Roast as the smell smothers the house.
Insomniac, doing the all-nighter.
Stockings hanging from the mantel-piece.
Tree - all the work to get it perfect.
Mistletoe, where the first kiss is made.
Amazement fills your face, and
Silence as the grace is said.
