Christmas Mirth

When I was little
We went to
Our Gramma’s
And Pap Pap’s home
On Christmas Eve
On the drive over
We counted
And admired
All the houses
With Christmas
Lights
It was cold
Outside
Snow was falling
Gently
Our grandparents
Home
Was decorated
Beautifully
We had baked ham
And lots of other
Yummy foods
Then we relaxed
For a while
Next, we opened
Our gifts
There was a huge
Mountain of presents
We watched
Christmas movies
Then drove
Back home
The next day
Christmas morning
We ran downstairs
At 7am
And waited for
Mommy and Daddy
To wake up
Our tree
Was gorgeous
We each
Took turns
Opening the gifts
We had so many
Wonderful presents
These Christmas
Memories
I cherish
