Christmas Reflections
There's hustle and bustle at Christmas you know As frost gathers on the panes and the ground turns white with snow People scurrying here and there, busy all day long Awaiting the Christmas holiday, the feasting and the song What is it in this season that makes us feel so good Is it comradeship, those friendly smiles, the carols or the food? Maybe it's the spirit that permeates the air The wonderment of children, knowing Santa'll soon be here Could it be the yuletide logs crackling in the fire The puddings, cakes, and candies of which we never tire? Or is it all the shopping which is a favourite part Searching for a fitting gift for those dear to our heart? Is it looking for a Christmas tree amidst the forest green Hoping to find the perfect tree of which we always dream? Decorating, hanging lights, making such a fuss Those are the things which we all do that mean so much to us Still we know there's more than that, more than meets the eye Especially on that Holy night, we gaze toward the sky That star is still there shining, over centuries still the same Reminding us that long ago 'twas the night that Jesus came Submitted By: Ed Power
