I feel the essence of

this Christmas Eve

filling my senses

with fragrant warmth,

 

submerged in a

little girls glee

at the thought

of her smile,

 

before she drifts

away to dream of

sweet nothings that

will fill a sleepy space,

 

where night lingers

submerged in darkness,

the only sound a gentle

breathing till Christmas Morn.

This touched my motherly memories and warmed my heart. Children's smiles and inoocent wonder on that night are tangible and sweet and so is this poem. smiley

Hi Penny,

so glad I touched your heart with this poem. Christmas was made for the young and there's nothing like their excitement to give us a smile.

Many thanks for reading and your lovely comment.

Your poem just sent a wave of calm and peace over me as I read and empathised with the little girl and wished I were she, remembered moments were I was... such a wonderful capturing of the essence of the Baby of The Morning :)
