A Soldier's Christmas

by Antoinette Kopperfield — Read all 219 poems by Antoinette Kopperfield

Wednesday, December 3, 2003



Houses all dressed up for seasons show
With lights upon their roofs with colored glows
The wreaths upon the doors smell of the pines
In windows we see trees and present’s bows

A time to make us joyful and renew
Our family’s strengths and friendships we do bond
A simple card that says ‘I do love you’
We send it in the mail to correspond

We think of others needs more at this time
Than other months gone by throughout the year
It makes us want to give our hearts so dear
To others ringing bells as they do chime

Simplicity and faith are all we need
To give back to the world when it is sad
When thinking of the wars across the seas
Our prayers for our soldiers we must add

Remember them when praying on that day
When we awake to presents under trees
They have no visions of our Santa’s sleigh
For Christmas they just get- upon their knees
