Oh Christmas lights,
Shine down on me,
With your multicolored glow,
As I gaze upon the tree,
A beautiful evergreen,
With no holes or brown leaves,
Standing tall and straight,
In our family room,
For everyone to see and adore,
Decorated top to bottom with ornaments,
Ornaments bought this year,
And ones kept from years past,
Attempting to distract little ones,
From the mass of presents,
Gathered underneath all the green leaves,
Waiting for the day,
When they would be opened and loved,
Which will be soon,
But not yet,
So until then,
I will continue to bask,
In the glow,
Of Christmas lights.

Ever since discovering Roald Dahl, I wanted to be an author who would delight and move her readers through her stories. I also wrote my debut novel, "Of Demons and Deception" on Amazon.
