The Day Before Christmas


The Day Before Christmas

We have been helping with the cake, 
And licking out the pan,
And wrapping up our present,
As neatly as we can,
We have hung our stockings up,
Beside the open grate,
And now there's nothing more to do,
Except
To
Wait.


Both my illustration and poem were inspired by anonymous artists from the 20th century.

Merry Christmas
~ Karen
