Christmas Eve Anticipation · 30 May 2026
We say our prayers and go to bed
Expectant on Christmas Eve
We are waiting for Santa Claus
And all the presents he will leave.
But the reality of Saint Nicholas
Does not matter much at all
For the members of our family
Give each other our all in all.
So as we wait for something special
While we sleep on Christmas Eve
Not really waiting for Santa Claus
And the presents he might leave.
In truth all of our waiting
For the warmth on Christmas morn
Is the celebration that we all will have
Of the day that Christ was born.
[Write a story or poem about needing to wait for something special.
DailyPrompt prompt submitted by Michael T. Miyoshi.]
I know that it is nowhere near Christmas Eve, but I was so excited that one of my prompts I submitted to DailyPrompt.com was used as a prompt that I had to write a poem for the prompt and I had to share it with you.
