Christmas Morning

Early morning Christmas reflections.

The world lies in a darkness,
thinned by fog.
Stillness wraps the moment
with reverance.
I've a cat in the window,
keeping watch for angels--
human eyes can't see
what the heart must sense.
Small fingers will soon arrive,
rending paper, scattering bows,
in frenzied, joyous excess.
The world will soon awaken,
but I keep a solitary vigil
to remember the coming
of Light in human flesh,
the birth of Love's true son
.

There's something to be said about catching an early morning on Christmas Day. Your poem has captured most of them. Thank you for sharing it and Merry Christmas to you.

Cats are truly wise creatures - as are many of their owners. Merry Christmas to you.

You know I have an old cat that does the same thing outside and last night my outside dogs heralded the arrival of Christmas at midnight.
