The Singing Bauble

At first I wasn't sure what I was listening to, if anything at all but as I moved a little closer, sure enough she was singing The Christmas branches hummed and the tinsel drummed and the figurines beneath the tree gave sighs of sweet relief At first I wasn't keen on a bauble that could sing a Xmas song I had failed to read the fine print ,yes the box had clearly stated "no batteries required" so I figured she was just a bauble like the other ones I tucked away each year, oh but she was not Every time the spruce was lit she'd light up like a Christmas tree and with her acapella voice she'd sing me my favorite song; "Oh Silent Night" was pure delight to hear with Christlike cheer each time my bauble-een sang up, it was a living Holy dream At first I wasn't sure I wanted a bauble that was so socialistic but as she sang my worries disappeared as I turned idealistic she brought me such joy and taught me how to be altruistic in a world so mundane she was an exceptional bauble- Mystic So it was no surprise that at the end of the season I kept her safe in my trinket box, where the rest of the year waited for the uplift of Christmas again. He is my Lord and my Savior he made the music and bauble, made me creative and free Today I am glad I own such a bauble, I listen without squabble and thank God for creating her and I thank God that she's able.
