Christmas
Time
Christmas is the season
with much rushing
around.
Everyone
is spending money
for the best
bargain to be found.
In stores people smile
at strangers
say "hello" to
someone they don't know.
It brings out the
good side of people
that they normally do
not show.
The stores are full of
Santas
with waiting lines
of tiny tots
while others
outside ring bells
saying thanks for
money in their pot.
Organizations ask for
help
to make sure all
children have a toy.
Hearts open up
and money rolls
and everyone gives
with joy.
All the shopping and
presents to wrap,
cards to send to family
and friends,
cooking, baking
- caught up in the
spirit
then in one day
it all comes to an end.
It's not
the tree or the presents
all wrapped with ribbon
and bows.
It's the glow that
Christmas brings
and the love that
others show.
How
beautiful if everyone could
be
the same as we
are at Christmas.
We forget the reason
for the season
to celebrate He
who gave His life for us.
