With Christmas soon to be here
No shoes no new clothes are mine to wear
No food for my table to prepare
My home and surroundings are simply bare
Yet my faith grows strong everyday
While kneeling bowing down to pray
The Lord prepares for me a most awaited day
Erasing all my worries and fears away
No matter what’s to be my situation
A Christmas will always be mine to begin
Celebrating Jesus whose life I live in
With joyful thanks my lasting celebration
He is the reason for the celebration...
He is the reason for the celebration! yes; HE, for all celebrations...let us celebrate Him! very good poem Meggie...soothing gospelly lines...10
Yes, it's good to know that it's Christmas again, just around the corner. I need to save to have more bread to buy gifts for my grandchildren, wow! Hey, you to have to put musical notes to this piece, it looks great as a Christmas song. Don't you think so? 10+
what a wonderful Christmas thoughts...a wonderful poem... the real meaning of Christmas is giving love everyday material things are not important during Christmas Day Love is enough to be shared with everybody esp to the less fortunate ones... Jesus Christ is the reason for the celebration...the birth of the savior being born in the stable is to tell us that even the Son of God humble himself He wasn't born with golden spoon....He was born in the stable...H e was born to save us.. really a wonderful write.... 10+++++ Lovelots, Maia

You are so right Meggie. We are celebrating our Lord's birth and and in Australia Christmas is far too commercialized. Television, radio and advertisements by mail flood us and so many people feel compelled to buy buy buy. We only buy for children now and we think carefully what the child really needs. I noticed your rhyme scheme too! Very well done! 10 love Karin
