I’d like to pen a little rhyme and write them down
instead
For you to keep and look back on, part of a memory
A simple sort of Christmas gift preserved in poetry
“Thank-you for dropping by this porch, the ‘keep-it-up’
and such
Across the miles you bring your smiles and kind and gentle
touch
I pray the Lord to bless and keep, for He is good and true
And may tHis joy and peace of Christmas reign the whole
year through
Your quick words of encouragement, to you may seem quite
small
But friend, I’d like for you to know I keep them, one and
all
Then on those darker days that all of us have now and
then
They come to me and whisper ‘don’t give up’ or ‘try again’
I’d like to wish to you and yours a Merry Christmas Day
And that you sense the love of God in life’s come-what-so-may
I’d like for you to know (though some of us have never
met)
That you are loved; And pray this year may be our best
year yet
God bless you as we celebrate the birth of our Saviour,
Jesus!
With love,
