Speakin O' Christmas and Other Christmas Poems

When he died at just thirty-three years of age, Paul Laurence Dunbar had achieved more than any African American poet before him. Speakin' O' Christmas and Other Christmas Poems is a posthumously published collection of his most festive-holiday themed verses, including, "Chrismus is A-Comin'," "Soliloquy of a Turkey," "Christmas in the Heart," and the titular, "Speakin' O' Christmas."
