Christmas Thoughts

The arrival of Christmas
Is like a new dawn,
Remembering the time
When Jesus was born.

The magic it holds
Brings a song to the heart,
It's the time of the year
To make a fresh start.

Snowflakes are drifting
On a light breeze.
Tinsel and baubles,
Adorning the trees.

Brightly wrapped presents
Piled in the hall,
Children all waiting
For Santa to call.

Jingle of sleigh bells,
Herald the night,
While carols are sung
In the soft candlelight.

Families are happy
Just being together,
Leaving sweet memories,
Lasting forever.
