CHRISTMAS EVE


the groendyke christmas eve
december 24, 2012
still, still, still
one can hear the falling snow...
what a splendid night
our evening
was to be simple
and humble
no christmas dishes
rather
paper plates
enjoy just a few
hors d'oeuvres
watch disney's version of the
christmas carol
bask in the freshly fallen snow
on a peaceful silent night
deliver a few gifts
make cookies for santa
open new pajamas from
grandma and grandpa
kneel in gratitude
for our savior
his birth
his life
his example
and appreciation
for
the twelve days of christmas
and
a white christmas
