32. So This Is Christmas

Moments like these are worth waiting for
As we sit around the dining table
So much laughter and chatter
The clashing of plates
The spoons feeding the mouths full of food and stories
Look around to see every chair filled
Not a single space around the love-filled home
The grinning faces of my family
That warm Christmas

These are the moments worth waiting for

The clock strikes;
Another Christmas

As we sit around the dining table
Seats are getting emptier
Laughter and chatter getting quieter than the other years
The careful eating and scraping of plates can be heard
The deafening silence awaiting its grand entrance

So much space, I thought
As I shuddered
Everyone of us rubbing our arms despite the hot temperature in the room

Hey peeps! Hope you enjoyed Christmas with your families😆
Happy holidays to those who don't celebrate Christmas and I with you guys a happy new year! That's if I don't write a poem for New Year 2k19😊
