Hello Lisa,
I think that it's neat that you got the idea to spend the night under the tree waiting. I like your poem and the picture you used.
I see that you moved to Spain. I was in Barcelona years ago when I was in the navy. My son was in Rota off and on. Interesting place.
Thanks for sharing your memories gal.
Blessings,
Tom

I remember staying up late also and never seeing St. Nick. As a child, my mom and I always left some nice cookies for him. Strange, how they all were gone in the morning! Thank you for bringing back some wonderful memories Please remind me in the future if you have a post in a contest so I can make sure you receive a comment and rating.

I promise I will Jim...
Thank you for showing so much interest in my poems.
Did you read Awaken... I think that was the very first poem I posted here.

That is lovely Christmas memory. It is my absolute favorite time of the year. No matter what else is going on, at Christmastime I feel happy and at peace. I can easily see how this photo of a beautiful Christmas tree brings back such memories.

What a cute memory! I could see my own children doing this. I was one of the naughty kids that used to peak at her presents before Christmas. I never got caught.

What a beautiful Christmas Tree picture. This memories poem is an easy read, and the text is also easy to read. It is so much fun to see how excited kids get about Christmas.
I believe the words "make shift" should be one word.
Thanks for sharing.

I can remember the day and the age that I ceased to believe in Santa Clause, I was seven and I decided I wanted to see him creeping into my bedroom and leaving presents, at about sometime after midnight, I caught my father coming in with a sackful of presents, that's when I sopped believing, I was being lied to. Beautifully written, blessings Roy

I love that floor lamp. I tried that too, more than once. Those are stories for another day. You bring back clear memories for me. Thanks so much. This is a nice nostalgic story. Good Work. Karen
