Here comes Santa on Christmas Eve



"Here comes Christmas it's that time of time of year for Santa to appear. Snow is falling on the ground,..... everywhere you look snowflakes can be found. Children wearing mittens in the snow,..... making snow balls they intend to throw. Jingle bells a ringing, jing-a-ling, the sounds of Christmas echos ring. Parents and children skate on the lake,..... the children home for holiday break.
Children dream of Santa Clause,.....as parents shop without a pause. the days are bright, the nights so clear,.... the love and spirit of Christmas permeates throughout the wintery air. Christmas carols sung at night,....under a dancing moon that glows so bright. Chestnuts roasting, grownups toasting this special time of year,..... after a nip or two, all our woe's and troubles seem to disappear. Here comes Santa, it's Christmas Eve,....he's finally here, it's hard to believe. Santa and his reindeer are now flying high,.... their lonely silouhetes dot the blackboard sky.

Empty stockings line the living room wall, hung for boys and girls who have images of santa's gifts racing through their minds,.... all in hope that they will find,.....their stockings filled to the very top with toys and presents of every kind." Copyright Joseph P. Martino poet, writer Millburn, NJ Christmas is nearly upon us by Joseph Martino "Christmas is the time of year to reflect with thoughtful prayer,.... to cast aside of all bad thought and habits you expressed throughout the year. We can all join together to celebrate Jesus birth,....a renewal and beginning right here on planet earth. Jesus left all of us a message while here on earth,to love, to care. His words were ever so simple,plain and so very, very clear: "Be kind and loving to one another throughout the coming year". Christmas is the time of year to spend with the young and old, the needy, greedy and the poor. A time to love, a time to share. Let us all spread our love around not for just a day but throughout the year with all our heart and soul,.... for the love of your neighbor should never turn so cold. Songs of Christmas carols fill the nighttime air,....family and friends gather round the fireplace drinking egg nogg and cider without a worry or a care,.... A time to love, a time to share. Chestnuts roasting on the stove, mistletoe strung over every door. The noisy sounds of sleighs are so difficult to ignore,....ringing out so loudly, they spread vibrations throughout the creaking floor." Attending morning service in our house of worse-ship, singing hymns and prayers of thanks,.... as children in nearby parks and playgrounds play games and harmless pranks. Turkey cooking in the oven,children playing with their new found toys,..... what a thrill and pleasure to see all the happy and smiling faces on all the little girls and boys." Copyright Joseph P. Martino poet, writer Millburn, NJ
