As I listen to Christmas Carols
on this cold crisp Winters night,
my problems seem unimportant
when in this holy light.
The beautiful Christmas Season
takes me back a bit.
Back to childhood,
to a tree with not much under it.
It really did not matter.
Our lives were very plain.
There was the deepest pleasure
from even a candy cane.
The tinsel on the tree,
the glitter caught my eye.
The simple beauty of it,
makes me silently cry.
The beauty and the splendor
of childhood Christmas Days,
I wish for the whole wide world
on this most precious of Holidays!
