Christmas Legacy
Christmas celebrations were precious times
filled with family bonding moments of love chimes
in gatherings radiating wondrous bliss
as Dad and Mom cooked comfort food we should not miss...
Christmas reunions rekindled sweet partnerships
marked with gratitude around warm fellowships
while we proudly recounted parents' nurture
as Dad and Mom led us toward triumph's pasture...
Christmas vacations keep me longing for home
since my heart yearns to dwell in our peace-fortressed dome
where I first enjoyed vibrant togetherness' worth
as Dad and Mom made it paradise on earth...
Christmas moments are still thrilling with delight
while we relive legacy aright
midst dear kindred expecting victory glow
as Dad and Mom in heaven wave their favor's show...
Christmas Season always brings memorable days
for which I thank God* for and worshipfully praise
especially that life-building is my vow
as Dad and Mom cheer me of my choice until now.
*1Thessalonians 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
