Christmas Means More
Children anxiously search a star-filled sky,
hoping to glimpse Santa's magical sleigh.
They scan the sky, knowing reindeer can fly,
sure that Rudolph's nose would give him away.
Smiles and giggles energize heart and soul,
as they romp around in innocent play.
Guessing what Santa might bring takes its toll,
and they sleepily await Christmas day.
Yawns and droopy eyelids say time for bed,
and they're marched off to dream of reindeer games.
And what presents Santa packed on his sled,
for they're sure they made his list of "nice" names.
A time of bonding and family joy,
Christmas means much more than getting a toy.
