Christmas was a special time of the year,

Oh, I love that kind of cheer.

Not to forget the family holding a Christmas Day event

At my great-grandparents' house.


My grandmother stood in the kitchen

to make the food perfect and pitch in.

My grandfather sat quietly in the corner,

rocking in his own chair.


My brother and I would hang out with our cousins.

We didn't always act loving

Chasing him around, scaring him,

Hiding under the bed for reasons I can never remember.


Not to forget the room with white walls and a soft carpet to match,

It looked like a snowy patch

Where I would lie down in the puffy and imagine the snowflakes slowly falling.

It would always make dozy.
