Claudia's Christmas Present -- Copyright (c) 1999 Morris Hirsch

Claudia always knows when Christmas is coming.
First it gets cold,
then they bring a tree into the house,
and hang lots of things on it,
and finally,
lots of people come and there are good things to eat.
Claudia is a cat.
She likes Christmas.
She likes the tree,
and the good things to eat.
Most of all,
she likes the holiday visitors,
and most of them like her too,
but one does not.
Until Claudia gives her a gift,
a long-lost charm bracelet,
she found under the sofa.
My very first one,
first of a series of bedtime stories for
my son.
Read a poem in progress.
The New Kerosene Lamp.
