I like that picture, though Happy Herman may have something else to say about whiteness. I think this poem is not bad.

No snow is falling, but we know it’s time
to drink the wine and cheer the birth of love.
What greater season could our loving chime,
the trees and cards and food a greeting dove, -- There seems to be a blip here.
with holly in its tiny yellow beak.
The snow will come and make of us a shrine, -- "of us a shrine" seems like padding meter.
but we have coats which never chill or leak.
They are the coats of energy divine, -- "energy divine" sounds like a linguistic inversion.
expressed with flames in hearths across the globe,
and soldier-trees with tinsel for a sash.
As to an eye a face and ear a lobe,
so friendship and the Christmas season mash.
So join me in this poor but honest song,
the cold is here, but not in us for long.

Here is a good Christmas poem, and here is one about Holly.
