A Christmas Poem

Twinkling lights strung on the tree
Adding to our jubilee
Reflections of our Savior's glory
Revealed within the Christmas story

Hanging bulbs upon the tree
Decorating joyfully
To celebrate Emmanuel
Among us Jesus came to dwell

A brilliant star placed on the tree
Shining bright for all to see
Pointing to the One who came
With hope and healing in His Name

Presents wrapped beneath the tree
Lovely gifts for you and me
Reminders of the Father's love
In sending Jesus from above

Carols sung around the tree
Filling hearts with song and glee
Echoing the angels' praise
Christ was born on Christmas Day

Jennifer A. Parsons (2009)
