    I leave a response when I like a article on a site or if I have something to contribute to
    the discussion. Usually it is triggered by the passion communicated in
    the post I browsed. And after this post Rhyming Christmas
    Words for Writing Poems and Song Lyrics | The Wonder of Christmas.

    I was actually moved enough to post a thought πŸ˜‰ I do have a couple of questions for you if it’s allright.
    Is it only me or does it appear like some of the comments come
    across like they are left by brain dead folks? πŸ˜› And, if you are writing on other places, I would like to keep
    up with you. Could you make a list the complete urls of
    all your communal pages like your Facebook page, twitter
    feed, or linkedin profile?

    It always is at night
    It’s always such a sight

    It’s Santa saying good night!

    The Lights so very bright at night

    The snow snowing

    This is why I love
    Christmas

    Lisa Says:

    I had a huge rug as a gift for my sister, that wouldn’t fit under the tree. So I typed up this revised verse from the Night Before Christmas, wrapped it in a Christmas box and watched the happiness spread. Thanks for your site, it helped motivate me.

    “The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that St. Nicolas soon would be there. The children were nestled all snug like a bug. While Santa stopped here and dropped off your RUG!”

    (he left it in the garage)

    Happy Christmas to all.

    roses r red,
    violets r blue,
    spending Christmas together,
    bringing memories forever.
    stockings on the fire top edge,
    Santa clause r on the ledge.
    reindeers flying up so high,
    people and children saying goodbye.
    seeing santa very soon,
    he is over the bright white moon.

    this is my very first short Christmas poem xxx
    hope you like it.
