Excellence Award in the 'The Write Track 2015' competition

Family and friends are surrounding me.
I unwrap my present from the tree.
My eyes are amazed from what I see.
Suddenly I am full of glee.
I say thank you and give them a hug.
I love them from my heart.
Since I was little, from the very start.
They make me so happy, as happy as I can be.
It’s so wonderful to have them right beside me.
It’s time for the feast, it will be so much fun.
The food is here for everyone.
Every bite is full of joy and Christmas.
I am never, never going to miss this.
Every year, Christmas is my highlight.
I see all my family and I can’t believe.
What I am going through is never to deceive.
