Christmas Wonder
As by the crackling fire I sit,
Outside my window, street lamps lit,
Around each lantern a rosy glow
Illuminates the falling snow.
Stockings hung from the mantle tell
A story of the children; we know it well.
Each one, their name a’glitter in gold,
A Christmas morning delight to behold.
Beneath the tree, its branches adorned
With twinkling lights and treasures more,
Bright, colored packages, with ribbons and bows,
Bring wonder and anticipation for young and old.
As goodies baking waft through the house,
Every room echoes joyful Christmas sounds–
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Happy voices, carols, and bells,
And all the delightful stories we share.
It’s Christmas Eve and here all is well.
But the wonder of Christmas is yet to tell–
The glorious story of a Baby King,
Born in a stable, salvation to bring.
Love came down that starry night.
May the Wonder of Christmas shine ever bright;
And as childlike hearts reflect His love,
May every home be blessed with peace from above.
