Notes About The Poem

To see the wonder on a child's face  at this time of year if your young or old we are all children at heart.

A Christmas Thought

Chinks of blue play peek a boo ,
Among the snow pearls of gray .
Stained glass windows to the heavens above ,
Upon this winters day.

Snow flakes in a frenzy fall ,
So delicate as fine lace.
In caressed like dreamy kisses,
Tickle hands and face.

Scarlet are the berries bright,
Against leaves of emerald green.
In sharp contrast against the snow,
Upon this winter scene.

For time draws near for tonight the eve,
When Santa drives his sleigh.
And those of us, who still believe,
Gives praise for Christmas day.

In a momentary silence,
I look to the sky this night.
In a thought of three wise men,
And a star that was burning bright.

My heart still full of wonder,
Brought forth by festive cheer.
And in hopes of what tomorrow brings,
Will last again all year.

I love the fanciful and colorful images in this beautiful Christmas poem! I think you meant "sleigh," not "slay." I'm saving it as a favorite, anyway. Thanks.
