Through The Eyes of a Child (Poem #357)
Do you remember when you
were just a child,
How you looked forward to Christmas
and that it took such a long while?
And do you remember when you came
into the room,
The Christmas tree that greeted you and packages
you couldn't open too soon?
Let's all remember this Christmas with
the glow of a child's face
And share the joy with others
without a moments haste.
