Christmas tree lights
shine on gifts and sweet treats -
stockings hang empty
I decided to make a reading of this poem as it inspires fond memories of my childhood Christmas’ at my grandparents.
Every Christmas Eve either my mother or grandmother would read Clement Clarke’s The Night Before Christmas to me. To be honest, I think it was a desperate attempt to curb the excitement and lull me to sleep with images of the presents under the tree when morning finally dawned.
This tradition paved the way for my love for writing and performing poetry. It was the first poem I ever memorized and is still ingrained in the old grey matter.
Happy Christmas Everyone.
