Good morning, good morning. Dear beloved, I am awake!

 I’m bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, and ready to give & take.

 

More love. I’m open to it. I’m stoked and highly amped.

My mom asked ‘if I wanted my gift mailed and I replied, “my gift needs no stamp.”

 

I am already gifted big time my mom loves me dearly as do my family and friends.

Love matters the most, kinfolk; it’s the gift that never ends.

Ooo Wee, Christmas Eve, it’s so good to see you.

What’s in the box, Gucci shoes or socks? My adolescent heart is true.

 

And I’ve been good this year. I finished my degree, and I did graduate.

I earned Magna Cum Laude status and ate all of the food on my plate.

 

Wait. What? 

Yep. Food is like love.

But no worries, no fear, I wouldn’t think to wait until next year

 

to take the pounds off — for I’m already on route.

 

Christmas Eve reminds me that while I’m cooking for just a few,

that I don’t have to taste all the dishes I prepare – then fix my plate, too.

 

Right? I’m certain I’m not the only one with that particular delight,

but then again, if you’re not an excellent cook, ‘tis easier to limit the bite.

 

LOL, kinfolk. I am just playing with you,

It’s Christmas Eve and I’m feeling free. What do you want to do?

 

Want to play a game or two? Will it be PS5 or PS4.

Perhaps you’d prefer the BLACK CARD REVOKED game. Have you played it before?

 

Are you into board games? When was the last you played one?

Monopoly is still the – ish.  It’s my go-to game for board fun.

Once I acquire Boardwalk & Park Place – lookout, playa’ lookout.

I’ll put you to shame on a board game but at bones and cards – I tap out.

 

Don’t even get me started on Chess. I admire the game, but I do not play.

Tho if you do, I’m a captive audience for the clues. I’m always up to watch skill display.

 

Ooo Wee, Christmas Eve, I’m sure you will bring with lots of drink.

That’s cool with me, I’m of age, you see; I’ll quench once I’m done with the ink.

 

Yes, I write every day. It’s just what I do.

Words yield the gift of communication; my connection to you.

 

I am grateful, I am giddy, and I am overjoyed with l-o-v-e,

I’m Qui

Ready to have some fun and indulge in love’s sum, on this beloved Christmas Eve. Ooo wee.
