Christmas Eve Miracle: All week wishing, Praying and hoping all along, My little boy and the little boy in me, Wonder and will it, Be white on Christmas day? The ground was bare brown grass, The sky was quite clear, December 23rd and the weathermen said no, All will be quite chilly and clear, But upon opening the blinds on Christmas Eve, There were flakes all flying by the street lights, The blue iced pond and grass covered in white, The grass was disappearing, To work was a peaceful slow drive, It must be a minor miracle, God made the weathermen out a lie, I'm here at work on Christmas Eve, And what we'd been hoping for is coming down outside, All we had to do was pray, And of course, believe! Merry Christmas!!! AquarianM By: Daniel A. Stafford (C) 12/24/2002 Author's Comments: This is no "doctored" story. There was no snow yesterday at all around Chicago, and the weather forecasts all said cold and clear. Yet when I looked out tonight...it's beautiful. *S* |
