Christmas Means More
Children anxiously search a star-filled sky,
hoping to glimpse Santa's magical sleigh.
They scan the clouds, knowing reindeer can fly;
sure that Rudolph's nose would give him away.
Smiles and giggles erupt from heart and soul,
as they romp around in innocent play.
Guessing what Santa might bring takes its toll;
as they sleepily await Christmas day.
Yawns and droopy eyes say it's time for bed;
and they nod off, dreaming of reindeer games.
And wonder what Santa packed on his sled,
for they're sure they made his list of "nice" names.
A time of bonding and family joy;
Christmas means much more than getting a toy.
