Christmas Morning

CHRISTMAS MORNING




Christmas time is here once again
Time for family and for friends
The heart of Christmas warms the soul
With the love’s eternal flame
From Mom’s kitchen
The  aroma of fresh-baked cookies rise
With the warmth of good home baking;
The essence of holiday ale and food
mellows the heart and fills the spirit with good cheer
In the atmosphere there is an air of generosity
Which puts us all in such a merry mood
Nothing quite can compare
To the sense of wonder and the sparkle
In a child’s eyes 
Upon rising on Christmas morning
To find all their hopes and dreams fulfilled
At Christmas there is a special glow
As you deck the halls with ivy and mistletoe
It fills your soul with fond memories
Of Christmases of long ago!

Mary Gonzalez©1997





Reason for writing:

    One of the most beautiful of holidays is Christmas.  Christmas is
one of the most poetical holidays within the Christian calendar.
As such, I write of the magical moments of childhood when all malice
and greed is absent and nothing is left but the joy of childhood.
