Twas the night before xmas and blog time was here.
Ten minutes of sharing good thoughts and good cheer.
Soon night would fall and festivities begin
a time to be with loved ones, be they friend or kin.
If this were a Tuesday I’d turn back the clock
I’d see the old versions of this and with shock
I’d say what ever happened to xmas poems so long?
The answer, you see is as loud as a song
It’s Christmas, it changes so much through the years
Some times filled with wonder, some even with tears
Some I remember, as a wonderous night
Yet even the bad ones came with some delight
Though as the clock turns, these kids they do age
From infant to toddler and into teenage.
Soon, too old for Santa and the wonder he brings
But never too old for wanting things
Even without magic, the kids still have joy
‘Cause there still will be presents for each girl and boy.
Even the naughty ones can still have some fun.
We’ll play games and see if more gifts can be won.
