Christmas Blitz
Listen to poem:
WHITE glistening snow
WHITE dove
DOVE of love
DOVE of purity
PURITY of intention
PURITY of child's innocence
INNOCENCE lost
INNOCENCE price was paid
PAID by charge
PAID by layaway
LAYAWAY in manager
LAYAWAY paid by Child stranger
STRANGER gifted Earth
STRANGER provided worth
WORTH is sung
WORTH is celebrated
CELEBRATED with mistletoe
CELEBRATED with a big bright bow
BOW your knee
BOW the harp
HARP Symbolizing joy
HARP for small boys
BOYS and girls anticipation
BOYS and girls toys, lots of noise
NOISE exuberant
NOISE so jolly
JOLLY with visual holly
JOLLY Santa's jelly belly
BELLY full of cocoa and cookies
BELLY bombs of snowballs
SNOWBALLS hanging from dogs fur
SNOWBALLS melded into Frosty's that once were
WERE we warmed by fireside
WERE we warmed by loves abide
ABIDE in reverence
ABIDE by presence
PRESENCE and presents
PRESENCE and love
LOVE silver bells
LOVE of children swells
SWELLS of memories past
SWELLS of smells that last
LAST gift is opened
LAST guest has left
LEFT to gaze Christmas lights
LEFT to kiss children goodnight
GOODNIGHT Dear Lord
GOODNIGHT illuminated star
STAR so very
FAR
