Sounds of laughter are in the air
People are running here and there
Christmas cards are sent with care.
Trees and lights make sparkling sights
Seasonal songs are filling the nights
It is the season of Christmas cheer
Distant loved ones are drawing near
With the hustle and bustle of time
It's easy to ignore the deeper rhyme
But paying attention to the spirit within
Will allow the spirit of Christmas in
For it's not in the running and racing around
Not in the ribbons and bows that are found
But in the act of giving without cost
That the spirit of Christmas wont ever be lost
So as you are racing and running about
Keep yourself patient and don't ever shout
Lest in the trying to make up a season
You lose the true spirit without a good reason
It's not about quantities or even the price
But rather the fact that Jesus the Christ
Came like a baby: so humble and poor
So we could find Heaven and enter it's door
I just wanted to let you know that I'm back after being away for... er, a long, long time.
ReplyDeleteI've had a busy year so far, with people moving, house being modernised,
but I'm back with a vengeance, he he!!! :-D
What a beautiful poem to come back to, though! The perfect message for this time of year!
