Christmas Eve Eve

Afternoon lovely people. I hope you're all doing well and feeling fine. Everyone getting ready for the holiday? We have been doing just that. Just wanted to drop in and wish you all a very Merry Christmas Eve Eve. I leave you with 3 of my fave poems by Edgar Guest.

A man is at his finest towards the finish of the year;
He is almost what he should be when the Christmas season's here;
Then he's thinking more of others than he's thought the months before,
And the laughter of his children is a joy worth toiling for.
He is less a selfish creature than at any other time;
When the Christmas spirit rules him he comes close to the sublime...
~Edgar A. Guest, "At Christmas," Just Folks, 1917
_______________
If I could have my wish to‑night it would not be for wealth or fame,
It would not be for some delight that men who live in luxury claim,
But it would be that I might rise at three or four a.m. to see,
With eager, happy, boyish eyes, my presents on the Christmas tree.
Throughout this world there is no joy, I know now I am growing gray,
So rich as being just a boy, a little boy on Christmas Day.
~Edgar A. Guest, "A Boy at Christmas," 1913
_______________
For Christmas comes but once a year,
      When harvesting is ended;
With merry din, the day comes in,
      By love and mirth attended;
The children dance and shout with glee,
      The eyes of all are beaming,
And high above the Christmas tree
      The Star of Hope is gleaming.
~Edgar A. Guest, "Christmas Comes but Once a Year," The Friendly Way, 1931
