Poem
Christmas Through July Christmas is such a grand time of the year! People are happy joy shows everywhere. Gifts of love arrive from both far and near. Scents of the season permeate the night air. Remembering the Savior's love so grand. Families hang lights, such a beautiful sight. Decorations displayed across the land. Many surprises are shared Christmas night. January came but the tree remained. Celebrating my child's birthday the same. Just like Jesus, her happiness sustained. Each year's tradition when her birthday came. Year round loving was about to be taught. Decorations of hearts and shiny red balls Replaced the angels that Christmas had brought. February feelings Christ's love did recall. In March, the tree was adorned with shamrocks. Paper-mâché nuggets sparkled in gold. Children and laughter sang around the clock. Smiles, like at Christmas, were great to behold. April was spring pretty flowers were hung. It took a lot of work, but was it still fun. We at play felt pure joy, free and young. One fun filled plan to teach love, begun. May decorations, the best, I recall. Mother's day cards, painted hands, paper plates. A trip to the attic was fun for all. While cherishing the loves childhood creates. Christmas in June on a new marriage day Downstairs jam-packed squeezed in each wedding guest. Rained out at the park, they saw our display. Christmas year round knew love at its best. July 30th past, the flags were still hung. Patriotism shown, honored with rare style. Christmas in July with a new day sung. We took down the tree cherishing each smile. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This lyric poem written in quatrain format is a true story that expresses my feelings about showing love year round…not just in December.
