the beating of my heart when you all arrive on Christmas morn
relief...you're safely here
the feeling as we gather at the table to eat
good......like the old days
the excitement around the decorated tree
fun......the look on each face
the conversation after all is done and over
precious......catching up on lost time
the reason why we celebrated
Jesus...........PRICELESS

AMEN....
and yet...we tend to forget the reason...don't we?
how sad I find this...
I am guilty of the same...I am no better...and I so wish that mankind and myself could find it our lowly hearts to remember...and be grateful...for Christmas' true meaning...and the HOPE within...
this is so poignant and powerful in it's simplicity...
my favorite type of poetry...
I will wear this poem for days...in my heart!
very well done!
Blessings! Tammy

This is beautiful and such a heartfelt write for your children. If it was me I would change the font color from black to maybe white so it would show up better. I loved this write. Merry Christmas to you and your family and good luck in the contest
