Notes About The Poem

 

 

Spontaneous Smiles

Christmas sparks spontaneous smiles on the faces of young and old. A family celebration, touting brotherly love and cheer. On the faces of young and old, a rosy glow is clearly seen. Children can't wait for Santa Claus, counting down the days in their dreams. A family celebration where gifts are received and given. And placed under a sparkling tree, all gussied up with tinsel foil. Touting brotherly love and cheer, it's a magical time of year. And for a brief fantastic time, neighbors share a greeting of peace.
