The Magic of Christmas Morning

Welcoming Christmas, with the birth of Christ as family gather round the Christmas tree. Quote by_ poet As they slept, winter welcome Christmas night. The moon upon a clear fixed starry night used its immutable alluring charm. The icy winds howled pilling up snow drifts. The morning warm sun rose to a sparkling crystalline rug of snow and trees buckling. Gray smoke rose from the fire in the fireplace drifting into the air from chimney top. You never outgrow the need to get up early on Christmas morning, a favorite part with family round the tree and children's faces glowing as they open their gifts. 11/28/2022 Writing Challenge - Write A Christmas Poem - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Constance La France

So true Eve - even after midnight worship!!! Naps have become part of our Christmas Day afternoon before everyone arrives for dinner. This poem is cozy. Even a Christmas Eve storm can't extinguish the warm blessings of Christmas. Congratulations on your win dear friend. Sending you Advent blessings of four candles.

Oh Eve, what wonderful memories you have brought back to me especially getting up early on Christmas morning, building a fire in the fireplace, tea and English muffins and orange marmalade as the fire warmed the chill of the house as we opened gifts in a quilted robe and fuzzy slippers. You have highlighted the rhythm of Christmas day so beautifully. Thank you for this early Christmas gift. Advent blessings dear friend.
