Early to bed
Anticipate the dawn
No thoughts of our Saviour
Or the day he was born
Tossing and turning
No sleep to be had
Excitement is growing
Driving me mad
Peer through the curtains
Searching the sky
Hoping perchance
To see him fly by
Squeals of delight
He surely has been
Little sis impatient
To share what she's seen
Skip through the kitchen
Crumbs left on his plate
Gifts galore surprise me
Santa was definitely worth the wait
I'm taking a blogging break while I celebrate the holidays. Have a wonderful time, stay safe and I will see you again in the New Year.

ReplyDeleteSuch a delightful Christmas poem! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI smiled to imagine those two excited little girls.........have a wonderful holiday time!
ReplyDeleteYour poem describes the madness of my childhood, was awake to open our gifts, my brother and I. Before packing off to my Oma and Opa's place (2 hour drive away), where 18 of my 24 cousins will be awaiting their gifts from Oma and Opa. Not to mention, my aunts, uncles and cousins' wives/girlfriends and great grandchildren. How times have changed.
ReplyDeleteAh! The magic of Christmas - and yet missing its true meaning. Love this ditty!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet.... and part of me wishes that I once had believed in Santa... but part of me is glad that I wasn't lead to believe and could love the gift being given by a giver.
ReplyDeleteAh, a beautifully festive verse. I love the anticipation and how you portray it here. :-)
ReplyDeleteYour poem sure does capture the excitement of the approaching festival and holidays! An year long wait has sure brought in lots of preparation and anticipation :)
