Long-Ago Christmas Eves

A crescendo 
  of anticipation             The thrill 
                                      of speculation
A tingle 
  of expectation

All competing for Santa's attention
  Mystical 
    Magical
      Long-ago 
        Christmas eves

It's the hap-hap-happiest time of the year, as Andy Williams used to sing. :) gw
