The Child Of Peace Poem by louis rams

The child of peace was born on this day
To wash the sins of the world away
Searched out by three kings who would give him honor and praise
From that moment on the world would change.
The gift giving was created by three wise kings
Not knowing what the future would bring.
2000 years of gift giving has passed, and it's a tradition
That will forever last.
Now it's called Christmas day and the children
Look forward to Santa and his sleigh.
A man who is dressed all in red
Giving out gifts while the children sleep in their beds.
I know Santa is on his way loaded with presents on his sleigh.
He went through his list not once but twice
To see who was naughty and who was nice.
Now if you was on his naughty list, you may not get that certain gift.
There are so many children waiting to see what will be under the tree.
Laptops, tablets, cell phones and such - all activated with just a touch.
The joys of Christmas that we share only comes but once a year.
But remember what Christmas is all about
A child called JESUS that we can't do without.
The three kings bearing gifts showed us this way
And Santa is continuing it to this very day.
So don't forget children when you go out to play, who gave you
These gifts on this grand and glorious day.
