CHRISTMAS THROUGH THE EYES OF A CHILD...

Magical , wondrous,  in all she could see..
The lights as they twinkled on
Her first Christmas tree..

She giggled and stared with delight as it glistened..
She giggled and clapped, as we stood there and listened..

She marveled with squeals at the sight that she saw ..
The Christmas Tree was huge, in fact, it was quite tall ..

She walked to the table where the Navity was displayed..
She smiled at Baby Jesus
in the manger where he laid..

 Grampa held her close in his  arms as he  showed her each sight..
Of the candles, the ornaments, the gifts, oh so bright!

Her eyes were so  big as
They darted around...
At the sparkle, the glitter,
the musical  sounds..

There is nothing as magical and wondrous to see ..
Than the delight of this child on  her first Christmas Eve ..

Aren't we all like her, aren't we just small..
Aren't we just wee things, when it is time to " deck the halls"..

So go ahead .. I dare you , act like  you are small ..
Bring back that child within you,
Just have a ball..

" Christmas is for children'" ..
We have all heard it said..
That excitement we feel on Christmas Eve..
Before we went to bed..

Oh night of wonder, we watch and we pray..
If just one night we could be children
as well as  Christmas Day ..

Merry Christmas !!
With Love..
