Christmas

 

 

Christ’s birth on this day.

Heaven’s love sent to earth.

Redeeming grace for all mankind.

In the form of a newborn babe.

Sealed man’s fate in eternal love.

Told in stories long, long ago.

Man’s existence saved by God.

A baby in a manger to behold.

Still gives us hope today.

Memories

Silent memories form in my eyes 

At this time of year.

To some this is the happiest time of their life 

With all the holiday cheer.

But to me it's just another day

To miss those who have gone away.

To me it's hard to smile and say.

Happy Holidays.

Being cheerful and bright is okay,

And it's perfectly fine to light up the night.

But it's also okay to remember and feel sad,

For memories, indeed, are not that bad.

Sometimes, memories become your light,

Guiding you through the darkest night.

They are gifts from loved ones no longer in sight,

Gifts that may brighten your holiday right.
