Notes About The Poem

The Gift OF Christmas

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

A wonderful entry for my contest, Sandra. For some reason this didn't show up in my contest. It also happened to Charlotte Puddifoot as well. Must be a glitch in the Soup. Although it's not posted in the winners list. Please except my 1st place award. Thanks so much for understanding. Happy New Year to you...Charlie

Wow, Charlie! Thank you so much for the placement! I thought for sure I had not followed the rules. So nice of you to let me know it was a glitch in the system. Very pleased to be among the 1st-place winners! Wish you a Happy New Year too! Sandra ;)
