Christmas
Excitement settles in my stomach as I wake up on Christmas day.
With full blown energy I sprint down the stairs
There, I gaze upon the dozens of presents left under the tree
I glance over at the plate of cookies and glass of milk
All the cookies were eaten and the glass was empty
Which meant Santa had come to my house
I strut over to my stocking and stumble upon pieces of candy
I thank God that I didn’t get coal this year
Now as a 17 year-old I miss the way I viewed Christmas
It was so innocent and whimsical
