Christmas is upon us.
Susie waits expectantly,
For the bearded Santa,
His laughter brings such glee.
The tree-lights twinkle brightly.
They're all decked in full array.
With grandma's hand-made
ornaments,
Her mother had crocheted.
Tommy's favorite train-set,
Circles 'round the Christmas tree.
Christine's ballerina,
Pirouettes, so gracefully.
A glimpse of Santa's reindeer,
With a nose of glowing red,
Sends children each direction,
As they jump right into bed.
Sleepy eyes drift off to
dreamland,
While Santa places all around,
Gifts for little boys and girls.
Candied goodies and nuts abound.
Santa helped himself to
cookies,
Left behind, and milk to drink.
As he wished all Merry Christmas,
Up the chimney, he rose with a
wink!
