Emile Pinet Poet Acrostic

Christmas Magic

Christmas is a magical time of year:
Happy faces, presents, laughter, and joy,
Ringing bells in celebration and cheer.
In the malls, kids ask Santa for a toy,
Swearing that they have all been very good:
Though parents insist they could do better.
Mindful to check his list twice, as he should,
And donning an ugly Christmas sweater,
Santa is anxious to get underway.

Magic reindeer fly high above the ground,
Alighting on rooftops with Santa's sleigh;
Going from house to house without a sound.
In the hearts of the children fast asleep,
Christmas memories are the ones they'll keep.
