The Night Before Christmas | Clement C. Moore
"The moon on the breast
of the new-fallen snow
Gave the luster of midday
to objects below;"
Merry Christmas Eve, everyone! Well, all of you who celebrate it.
For today's post we have the classic - the ultimate Christmas poem. I know this is not a book, and I know it can be read in a couple of minutes. Still, I felt it appropriate for the occasion. You all know that it's a story about St. Nick's visit to a sleepy household on Christmas Eve.
When I was younger I thought it was a book and I was desperate to read it since I saw it read to kids in almost every Christmas-themed movie. Alas, I realized it was a poem and read i right away years ago. Still, when I saw this beautiful mini version I had to buy it - if nothing that to read to my own children cone day (if I end up having any).
If you're even reading this today - have a very very happy Christmas Eve and enjoy the time with your family - born or adopted along the way. I hope you all enjoy the magic of the holidays.
