I Still Believe

On

Christmas

Eve, the sky we

spied; in morning’s

light, we’d be wide-eyed

Just what we’d wanted was under

our tree; it must have been Santa ~

who else could it be? As for the stockings,

he’d filled up each one, then ate up the cookies

when his job was done. Now some traditions may

not be the same, but that spirit of giving, I’ll never disclaim

Christmas yet fills me

with great joy, because…

I still believe in Santa Claus J

A lovely seasonal rhyme mapped out upon a tree's triangle. All you need now are lights, spangles, and a star on top. Your belief may be the star, and your words may be spangles and lights.

[Rita L. Sev]

"Your belief may be the star..." I like that a lot... Thank you, Aethereal!

[Sami Khalil]
