Snapshots freeze the passing days
Faces fade into sepia haze
Photographs catch the moments that fly
Capturing memories of days gone by

Innocence dances in morning so bright
Not a care to concern her, she’s one with the light
Donning flowers about her face
A child of beauty and elegant grace
Free as the elements, one with the wind
Swirling about, again and again
Taking it all, she is lost without care
Free as a butterfly, dancing on air

Angel baby, child of light
You stand on tippy toes
Upon the holly berry branch
To catch the falling snow
Floating above your tiny hands
Still you reach for it, afar
Until, softly, it lands upon you
And you catch your falling star

Dedicated to all the wonderful men who grace the malls and schools, and businesses, who give of their time to bring joy to the children, and smiles to the adults…I say Thank you 🙂
Twas the night before Christmas
The place was in tatters
Ribbons and wrappings
And empty cookie platters
With no time to waste
I had to move fast
The children were waiting
With lists in their grasps
I threw on my long johns
And fastened the flap
I hope I can get out of these things
In a snap!
With my belly all stuffed
And my white fluffy beard
Donned my red woolen coat
Wrapped in holiday cheer
Little eyes glowing, pure and simple, with glee
When they came and they sat upon my bended knee
The excitement I saw, was worthy of bliss
When they jumped off my lap, and blew me a kiss
Oh! What joy it brings to my heart
Making sure all was merry and bright
With my sack fully packed
And the sleigh on its way
Merry Christmas to all
And to all a good night!
