A Christmas Gift. Poem by Geoff Warden
A Christmas Gift.
In presence of the multitude,
I have shown barring no gift,
For what hath I worth thy child......
In glance of many gifts bestowen,
Frankensence, Muir, Silver, Gold,
For I posses nothing worth Lord......
In tater clothes I bow Mother Mary,
And confess the birth of virgin son,
Yet words fall short of glory be.....
As thy man Joseph smiles upon,
Watching o'er thy babe Jesus,
I surrender in humilitance unto my lack.....
In moment chance hold thy hand,
of the child that taketh my place,
For this tiny babe shall wash me clean.....
In this childs eyes my saving grace,
In his fathers hand thy mercy proclaims......
Well-written Geoff, Jesus is himself the most precious gift for mankind on Christmas day! No other gift can surpass it. love, Dr John Celes

Hi Geoff: I'm not a big fan of ellipses, though I have used them sparingly. For another take on Christmas day read Borne on a Notion.

Sir Goeff, Nice slice of th' absolute concept of the first Christmas..'And HE will be sought out by many...and led to HIS stead, from the paupers to the Kings from the Miller to the Inhereted..all as one, with no bias nor envy, as they have all come to share the same Gift...the blessing of the Child...King of Kings...' MERRY CHRISTMAS GUYS! FJR
