A Christmas Poem.

Here is a Christmas poem, for you.

Christmas Box.

I fill a Christmas box
With things I want to share.
First in goes love,
Wrapped in an angels’ wing.
Then there is peace
Tied up with a ribbon of diplomacy.

Then I add prosperity
laid in a cup of common-sense
And medicine,
folded into a nurses uniform.
I put in compassion,
in pieces small enough

to place in your heart
And understanding sweetened
with sympathy so that
You may eat of it and
feel it from within.
Next comes empathy.

Enough to share with others.
Then joy to lighten the darkest day.
And hope in a dish
that never will be found empty,
Wrapped in a cloth of strength
to get you through the worst times.

There is magic too. Just a pinch.
To make one small thing happen-
By reading this,
you have opened the box
And all those things inside it
now belong to you.



Wishing you all the very best at Christmas and for the New Year.

Love and Peace to all
From Miki Byrne.
