Just Imagine
By
h. lena jones
Oh, I was hoping you’d drop in
‘Cause I’d like to send you on a journey
Imagine it is Christmas right now in October
Take a horse and buggy ride around your neighborhood
Watch the host of colorful fairy lights blinking
Marvel at the various creative displays
Of decorations and nativity scenes
Glimpse through windows
The happy faces of grown-ups and children
As they trim the Christmas tree
Feel the joy that’s in the air
The peace that spreads within your heart
Taste the scrumptious turkey dinner
Hear the chatter and laughter
As folk share those precious moments
Of Christmases gone before
Let your imaginary journey take you to the cave
Where baby Jesus, wrapped in swaddling clothes
Waits to greet you with a gurgle of love
Reminding you of the reason for the season
And the unexplained peace and joy
Which permeate the Earth
And touches the emotions of all of mankind
Even if they don’t all believe in Him
But your journey need not end here
Make everyday like Christmas day
Spread the love of God to all you encounter
Because that’s what baby Jesus did
The day they came to see Him in the stable
Give thanks to God for making you
The loving person you are today!
“Glory to God in the highest
And on earth peace
Good will toward men,” sang the Heavenly host!
(Luke 2:14)
Christmas time will soon be here
Let’s make a point to really remember
The reason for the season!
I wish the system and its overlords understood ... I've seen shops already setting up to sell for Christmas.

Here we have a dark gathering storm of Evil, who worship a false god and do a thing called ramadam/n
