This is a very well written ABC poem about Santa and his one time visit every year. You used very good descriptive wording with great art work. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

Good use of rhyme and form. The lighthearted tone goes well with the holiday content. It is easy to read and shares a positive outlook. I loved the photo. Nice work, enjoyable read.

The reader has to go figure why the children may be vexed at the Santa. It may be because of the sugar content of the kicks and to the character of this rendition of the Santa myth. The foremat is fine. Good luck.

Good morning, Patty

Ahh, your version of the night before Christmas. I was a bit confused when you said, stockings hung, children vexed why would the children experience irritation? Enjoyed the poem.

Take care and stay safe,

Ray

    kids only get irritated because the stockings aren't full enough!

This fits the ABC poem structure. I think there's some humor intended because it seems that Santa Claus is being more of a Scrooge here taking candy from the stockings? Or is he just rearranging them? Anyway, the "children are vexed!" Good rhymes in such a short poem!

A very well-written ABC poem about the great excitement of Christmas Eve. The whole family gather around the tree to wait for Santa to come hand out the stockings and presents.

Another cute poem about Christmas.

I love this time of year, and for all the wonderful poems and stories.

A really good ABC poem that ties in the theme for the season, and satisfies the requirements of the contest. Which by the way, good luck in it.

Take care,
Rhonda

I love Christmas... And the holidays are here with Santa at the mall. Buy 3 cards at Hallmark and get 2 bowls for $9.99.

Great presentation as the picture & color scheme are so festive. Nice font choice too. And such a busy man Santa really is... Can't be all smiles when there's plenty to do even if it's fun, candy and games. Enjoyable poem to read.
