Best Holidaylife Poems
Heaven Colors Life Pure and White
Winter colors have drifted white.
Twigs of ice sparkle crystal rains.
Beauty beneath has frozen lights.
Generous gifts squelched hunger pains.
Churches, children, and parents chime.
Loving Godsends and hope remains.
Freezing! Homeless! Alone this time…
Hear as shoppers hurry around.
Those silent chimes, “Please give one dime.”
People singing! Tearful eyes found.
“What is all the scurry about?”
“Stop!” Fall to your knees, heaven bound.
“Ho! Ho! Ho!” says the man with clout.
He dressed in red with cheeks so bright!
Joyful squeals, childhood laughter, shout!
Alone. One man watched the whole sight.
Pierced hands, He reached out to the crowd.
Heaven colors life pure and white.
Quiet hearts, listened with heads bowed.

/Evergreen Tree\
Sign of the eternal life in Jesus christ
/The red bows and ornaments are a symbol of your blood\
/The star is the Lords star, that guided the wise men that night long ago\
@ The gifts in three @
A sign of the Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit
The perfect gift, given once to save the world from sin
/Perfect love, help me overcome to the end of my life on Earth\
