Christmas Eve

Door bells ringing, children singing Christmas songs, just for you. Joy they bring, with smiling faces hoping for a coin or two. Church bells ringing, choirs singing Christmas carols by candlelight. As the faithful come to worship on this special holy night. Lights are on the Christmas tree pretty colours reflect on the wall. Excited little ones, trying to sleep hoping Santa, will come to call. In the church they speak of shepherds and angels coming from above. Of how Christ was born of Mary the prince of peace and love. There are parties, with happy people who are full of Christmas cheer. Dancing, singing and laughing and enjoying their food and beer. At the church, the mass is over so the congregation drift away. Night becomes a new tomorrow. and at last, it’s Christmas day.
