A Christmas Day Poem by Elizabeth F. Guptil captures the bright-eyed excitement that builds in children as December 25th draws near. From sparkling eyes and Christmas trees to stockings hung by the wall and stories of the Christ-child, the poem moves through the sights, sounds, and secrets that make the season feel magical. Short and rhythmic, it builds toward a simple but heartfelt conclusion — that for children, no day comes close to Christmas.
