Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Narrative

The Children Excited For Christmas

The Spirit of joy
Is felt by children
Getting excited
For Santa to come
Everywhere they look
Decorations seen

Soon  Santa will be
In thew shopping mall
Children wrote a list
To give to Santa
For their Christmas gifts
That  they hope to have

Children are  anxious 
To  meet Santa Clause
Sit  upon his lap
Telling him their list
The gifts they  would like 
For the Christmas Day

James Howerton January 16, 2026 at 3:46 AM You made me feel the joy and excitement of what Christmas used to feel like when I was a child. So much has been lost over the years. So many have forgotten the true meaning of Christmas. Loved your poem James Howerton January 16, 2026 at 6:26 PM Yes, so much has changed in the world and it's sad. But love is the answer to all situations. Have a great day Darlene De Beaulieu January 16, 2026 at 10:53 AM Hello Howard, Howard, i feel the same way you do about Christmas.
