Title: MERRY CHRISTMAS POEM
Post by: want2Bpure on December 15, 2003, 10:42:14 PM

  Twas the night before christmas
and all through the town Not a sign
of Baby Jesus was anywhere to be found.
The people were all busy with Christmas time
chores Like decorating ,and baking,and
shopping in stores.

No ONe sang "Away In a Manger, no crib for a bed".
Instead they sang of Santa dressed -up in bright red.

Mama watched Martha Stewart,Papa drank
beer from a tap. As hour upon hour the presents they'd wrap.

When what from the T-V did they suddenly hear? Cept an
ad., which told of a big sale at Sears.

So away to the mall they all flew like a flash...Buying things
on credit ...and others with cash!

And as they made their way home
From their trip to the mall, Did they think about
Jesus Oh, no ...not at all.

Their lives were to busy with their
Christmas time things-No time to
remember Christ Jesus, the King.

There were presents to wrap and
cookies to bake. How could they stop
and remember who died for their
sake?

To pray to the Savior ...they had no
time to stop-because they needed
more time to "Shop til they dropped!"

On Wal-mart! on K-mart! On
Target! On Penny's! On
Hallmark! On Zales! a quick
lunch at Penny's

From the big stores downtown
to the stores at the mall
they would dash away,dash away
and visit them all!
And up on the roof,
there arose such a clatter
As grandpa hung icicle lights
up on his brand new step ladder

He hung lights that would flash. He
hung lights that would twirl. Yet, he
never once prayed to Jesus...Light of
the World

Christ's eyes..how they twinkle!
Christ's Spirit..how merry!
Christ's Love..how enormous! All
our burden's....He'll carry!

So Instead of being busy,
overworked,and uptight
Let's put Christ back in
Christmas and enjoy
some good nights!


Merry christmas My friends-Love and Peace In Jesus =o)
