Merry Christmas and Feline Friday! December 25, 2020


I wrote the poem below many years ago.
Enjoy!

 Today is much simpler

With only stockings to fill

But I miss the childish chuckles

In the early morning still

Of sweet children opening gifts

Of toys so wanted and admired

Whispered softly in Santa's ear

What those little hearts desired

And in that early morning

As parents yawn and smile

They watch their lovely children

Past remembrances beguile


Another lovely Vancouver kitty!
Merry Merry Christmas! 
Lots of good wishes and hugs!
Thanks Sandee!

  6. Yes, we miss the days when the children were small and Christmas was more magic. It's okay, the magic is still there if you look.

    A blessed and beautiful Merry Christmas to you!

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page.
