This is a really nice haiku for the Christmas season.  In fact, it probably is the first haiku that I`ve ever seen written for the holidays.  I hope that you and you family enjoy Christmas.

Earl: Thanks for the read and write. We're working on the decorations slowly, but surely. Hope your holidays are festive, fun, and safe. Peace.

Tantalizing; though what is found is not revealed, it caused delight, and that's the spirit! Thanks for an uplifting haiku, indeed, first of its kind for me! Let the fires burn bright in the old campground! Happy holidays!

Isn't is amazing to watch children become the light?  This spontaneity of this makes me smile!

To one and all, thank you for your kind words. They are the presents under the tree. My personal perspective on this one... what is so special under the tree for me are my daughters and their delight at finding their own special gifts. Hope you all enjoy the season. Peace.

My favorite part of Christmas- watching the children open their presents Enjoyed.

You'd be surprised by the pain I can imagine inflicting and receiving.
