Last
month of the year gathers hope and love,
True
meaning of Christmas symbolized by a dove
With
letters and prayers that St. Nicholas appears
Decorations---shopping
to bring on good cheers
Thick
snowflakes start floating a few days before
Adding
to the spirit when making cookies—galore
Wrapping
gifts late at night to hide the surprise
For
Christmas day comes—eyes wide in great size
Tree
is fashioned in a heartwarming display
Table
arranged for the merry holiday buffet
House
filled with warmth from God’s little gifts
In
pajamas, they giggle and watch snow drifts
Church
bells ring the morning our Lord was born
Who
would’ve thought he’d die with a halo of thorn.
It
arrives—celebrating the fine art of Christmas day,
Lingering memories of a jolly old man and his sleigh
Christmas and Poetry,
Bea
