Under the Tree

Under the Tree, Santa in flight Gifts being shared, so much delight. Such a joyous, fun time of year, So much giving… holiday cheer. Blizzard in my, stomach all night. I hope Santa gets my gift right, I have been good, and do not fight. In the morning, will it be here Under the Tree. On Christmas Day, eyes touched by light, Oh that gift would be a sweet sight. Did Santa come, with his reindeer? I’m in jitters, will it appear. Then I see, a shiny new bike Under the Tree. By: Greg Stanley For Cyndi’s “Gifts Given, Gifts Received” Contest
