The Lovelight of Christmas



There was a time
   When Christmas was special to me.

A time when trees
    Were decorated with handmade strings
       Of popcorn and cranberries
           And homemade stars that were carefully
               Cut out and covered in glitter.

A time when icicles
      Were carefully placed
          Among bubble lights
             That gurgled gleefully
                 To herald the
                       Coming of the Christ child.

There was a time
      When gifts were lovingly made
          By a mother’s hands
              And families gathered
                 To joyfully carol 
                     The birth of a Savior.

We lost that joy,
    That veneration –
        That made Christmas
            A time of quiet reflection
              And reverence.

I breathe a sigh of relief
     In my prayers tonight
         For the blessings I’ve been 
             Privileged to enjoy in my life;
                For the memories that will remain
                   In my heart forever;
                      And for the lovelight
                        That has been bestowed
                           On my family and friends.

I am richer
       For the experience.

I am blessed
     For having known
         The joys of Christmas
            As it once was
               And could still be, again.
