Christmas Day

an Acrostic poem for the Writer's Cramp

Children squeal as they discover
heap of presents beneath the tree,
radiant with bulbs and garland,
immersed in holiday tradition.
Santa has delivered as promised.
Today their troubles are forgotten.
Merriment prevails throughout the house,
as aromas drift from the kitchen,
sanctifying this special day.

Dedication of parents
always ensures a happy ending,
year in and year out.
