"Christmas Eve in a Little Boy's Bedroom"

(A Poem by Phyllis P. Colucci aka "Fictiontarot")

 




 

 

Christmas Eve in a Little Boy’s Bedroom


Christmas joy, Christmas peace

Christmas Eve comes tonight

It comes to life when the sun goes down

But its glow is super bright

 

Nocturnal yuletide melodies

Bring holiday bliss to all

Fancy flickering colored lights

Toy soldiers short and tall

 

They march around my bunk bed

Their steps are all in sync

I honor them with a child’s salute

and a calm and subtle wink

 

Snowmen approach my bedroom window

Peeking through the glass

Wearing smiles as they tip their top hats

Bowing their heads with class

 

I hear them glide across crunching snow

As they turn to walk away

To take their places back on the lawn

Awaiting Christmas Day

 

The Christmas train rolls ‘round the track

Vibrating across the room

I wait as it passes through my plastic village

Hurry! Hurry! Please roll around again soon!

 

The candy canes rise and stand upright

They dance as if on stage

My brother is still fast asleep

Still too very young an age

 

One day he will join me on this magical night

When the Eve comes a knockin’

With Mom and Dad sleeping like logs

He and I will certainly be rockin’

 

Our Christmas tree is spinning

To the magic in the room

The toys which slept on shelves all year

Are suddenly in bloom

 

…Oh no, the time is almost here

The watch hands tell me so

My heart is suddenly full of fear

Because I already know

 

When Santa and his reindeer land

On my roof this Christmas Eve night

I need to be fast asleep

Or my Christmas stocking will feel quite light

 

So good night all, I’m off to sleep

Staring at the moonbeams

Merry Christmas all you folks

Hope to see you in my “Yule” dreams!

  

QUOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:

The Magic of Christmas in a child's world will happen in their own bedroom on Christmas Eve...
