A poem by Erica Green –December 2013
A tree in every window;
Shoppers fill the malls.
You hear the distant jingle bells
As people deck the halls.
“Christmastime is coming!”
You hear the people cheer,
“Buy more presents! Sing more songs!
The day is almost here!”
People don’t remember
All throughout the year,
They don’t think on goodwill toward men
Till Christmastime is near.
The baby in the manger.
A gift from God above,
Welcomed to earth by angels,
He was a gift of love.
So please try to remember,
As you trim the tree,
He gave the greatest gift of all,
The gift that set you free.
