Delightful Christmas Grounding

Child on Santa's lap
Decorations high
Band playing carols
Girls wrap many gifts
Mall is so crowded

Christmas Spirit
People joyous
Excitement wow,
My legs are tired

Silent Night
A child's laugh
Loud Singing

Turkey
Muffins

Cake

Dearest Jennifer, my soulful poetry sis, I'm delighted by the hustle, bustle, music, laughter, elation and exhaustion (Excitement wow, My legs are tired) captured in your Christmas poem. Such lively, endearing, holiday spirit and imagery! I love Christmas but I hate the crowded malls haha! Your golden pen shines like a grand treetop star! I wish you and your lovely family a merry Christmas and a happy new year filled with poetry, light and love. Always your devoted fan and adoring poetry sis.. ~Susan

What a wonderful representative poem of the Christmas season celebrations, my friend! Love that it ends with "cake!" You so effortlessly take me through the season and all the things I look forward to as the season revels itself each year! Best wishes of the contest! Advent blessings of joy to you!
