Arrays of packaged presents, large and small,
the sound of bells and lovely Christmas songs,
fresh cold, crisp air, and joy of Santa's call-
this time of year, to Christmas time, belongs.
But, these make up the fun-filled outer wrap
that holds the deeper gift of love, the prize,
which dwindles when we fall into the trap-
neglect the meaning Christmas time implies.
Before and after Christmas, hold it dear,
this heartfelt gift of love for all to share;
enjoy those feelings through the coming year
and let them flow with joy beyond compare.
LONG BURIED NEATH THE PRESENTS, CARDS, AND BOWS-
shared CHRISTMAS LOVE FOREVER SHINES and glows.
~~~
Long buried neath the presents, cards, and bows-
Christmas love forever shines.
heartfelt gift of love
before and after Christmas-
joy beyond compare
