The Meaning Of Christmas

 

 

Buried underneath

all the bags

& bows

& paper

is the true meaning

of Christmas

 

somehow lost

in the fury of the day

the mad rush

the pursuit of trivial things

 

what lies beneath

is the companionship

the caring

the love exchanged

 

for this be thankful

for this be glad

without this exchange

of giving love

a sadder world would be

 

and none would know

the warmth within the human heart

the real meaning of Christmas.
