On Christmas Day
On Christmas day, shines the star of Bethlehem!
Search not for this lustre in the sky,
For within our core, glows God’s gem,
Revealed when narrow ego cravings we decry,
Kissing erst fears and desires a final goodbye.
Recall the three wise men, who brought gifts;
Frankincense, myrrh and gold,
Foretelling how Jesus uplifts,
The pure of heart, who His love and light behold,
As tales of miracles and resurrection are retold.
Forged in flesh and blood, Jesus walked among us;
He was and is, the son of God.
Like Him, let’s board the love bus,
Mindfully gentling our touch and giving love a nod,
Tiptoeing prayerfully into our glowing heart unshod.
Let Christmas day then be the inspiration to begin,
Melding head with our heart,
By cessation, erasing erst sin,
In thought rested silence, by adding love to cart.
Christ consciousness dawns, no sooner we start!
