Christmas Poem for the Merry Season

This Christmas.

Whatever it is,

Close your eyes,

See it in your minds eye,

It might become your gift,

This Christmas.

Many are thrilled,

Yet many more may not have the strength,

To reach a Christmas tree,

Pick and leave a gift,

This Christmas.

The wind blows,

The candle flame slants,

As children play they learn of fairies.

And the old, they tell the stories,

Ever so slow.

Pray tell what you wish for,

That father may give,

This Christmas.

Families come together, this once.

To sing and play and dance,

No other day gives a better chance,

Give yourself up this time,

A familiar gift that stuns,

Once a merry year,

This Christmas!.
