The Night Before Christmas Poem by Kaila George

Twas the night before christmas
she sat alone in her house
as she cried in vain for her lost little soul

What was the point of it all if my angel was not safe in my arms

Then just as I was about to give up my soul a small little knock came knocking at my house

She was no bigger than my girl with her parents in tow with sadness on their face oh lord give me strength

Maama you may not know me but my name is sammy she glanced at her parents with love and joy then looked at me with purest of love

My heart beat fast has I caught my breath and listened in wonder has she said these words

My mom and dad asked me what I wanted for christmas she smiled her sweet smile and sighed

Kay was my friend I told them I wanted to give you this and she held in her hand an angel braclet charm

I blinked my eyes at her sad little eyes as she continude to say in her her small little voice when I get to heaven I'll give her a hug and tell her how much you miss and love her so

I invited them all in my heart aching for her parents that loved her so at their story of woe and told them how every year we brought a charm for good cheer

My angel may be lost but she is forever in my heart
