Festive

Festive

Ti's my favourite time of year, from young until I'm old,
I love the glow of Christmas trees and don't even mind the cold. The snow is always fun for me even though I drive,
the happiness in my kids eyes is all I tempt to strive.Β 
Christmas eve's my favourite, family films and fun, preparing the feast of tomorrow is all but to come.Β  But before our merry dance and playΒ  cleaning is a must,Β  a tradition in our family that's always been robust.Β  The snowman on the evening, hot chocolate and whipped cream,
fresh out of the bath, all prepped, ready n pristine.

Bedtime soon but comes around,
Sleep is always hard,
I tell them not to make a sound, again ti's always hard!
But soon enough they're sleeping,
We sit and wait for quiet, but always end up creeping trying not to cause a riot!
Early we are woken by a scurry and a dash, barely opening eyes before my daughter makes a splash.
Down the stairs we tip toe, to see if he's still there!Β  My heart melts when I see them run to presents everywhere.

Absolutely love this, Simon! Christmas Eve is my favourite day of the holiday too.Β  Christmas Eve is excitingΒ  it's magical. Back in the day my kids would get sooo excited. I was always up so late Christmas Eve ...I would fall into bed at about 2a.m Christmas day only for the kids to be up at 4a.m super excited because Father Christmas had been. Your lovely poem reminded me of all that so thankyou so much for sharing g this with us. Pinned to read again and again x
