What Christmas Means to Me

christmas-tree-angel

The brisk, quiet, star-lit nights
With people on the go
The hustle and bustle of shopping
While praying for it to snow

Decorating the tree and the house
A Nativity Scene on the lawn under the sky
Angels placed all around it
For all to see, who come by

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

Baking cookies and other treats
Addressing cards to send to friends
It can be busy and hectic
But you hope it will never end

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

Everyone is usually happy
With smiles all around
People greet others cheerfully
It is such a joyous sound

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

Children are filled with anticipation
Wondering what gifts they might get
Parents hide these treasured packages
So the children won’t see them yet

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

Many parties are held
Where people get together for fun
They talk about how exhausted they’ll be
Once the season is done

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

People go off their diets
And eat much more than they should
It’s difficult to pass up the food
Because all of it is so good

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

People start getting serious
As the special day draws near
Carolers sing wonderful songs
They are a joy to hear

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

The special day known as Christmas
Is the anniversary of Jesus’ birth
It’s a day that is held most holy
All around the earth

christmas_ornament_1christmas_ornament_5christmas_ornament_4

As we gather in churches on Christmas
Remember to thank God above
For sending His Son to redeem us
And filling our hearts with love

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS

    Beverly it’s a great Christmas poem you wrote. Christmas is the best part of every year, Jesus Birthday. I love the Christmas lights and music with Christmas animated movies and the story of Mary giving birth to the Lord and Savior of the world Jesus Christ. Christmas to me is when the love and joy of Jesus flows in everybody hearts, that brings smiles that never end, Merry Christmas!

    Celebrating Christmas without salvation from sin is worthless. Christmas is a wonderful celebration and folks would also reflect on the reason for the season and the one who died on the cross of Calvary for our sins in order for us to have salvation which is JESUS CHRIST, then the celebration for Christmas will be greater.

    Thank You! Jesus is the reason to enjoy this Christmas season. Even if you have a loved one no longer living, by your side to enjoy being with. But Jesus is my strength as my life lives on for Christ now.

    Dear, the Christmas season, I love seeing the children smile and happy! It makes me feel like a big kid around them and I love the singing of the Christmas carols together. It’s Christmas eve and looking at all the decorations and Christmas lights got me thinking of you always…
