Christmas Eve

This night is different, a night of adventure This night is quiet, the sky falls in bits Like stars, but chilly,white and fluffy. Homes lit up as the hearth lights with enthusiasm The chimney roars with excitment,this night Awaiting that special guest of the night Children stare with anxiety through the frosty glass Waiting to hear the roof sing, of his arrival Yet again the night draws near,sleep calls. As if nature apprehends his wishes Spirits grow dull and the eyes heavy We have drank of a spell deeper than hogwarts Morn comes with new stories yet untold. We missed him again, like always But not the gifts he brings along Such joy and merry they make,in the heart As they sing those words,''It's christmas'' Making jolly under the tree.
