Poem Artwork

In the midst of the holiday crush/
rush to buy, buy, buy, we forget
the Real Reason for the Season:

A loving Father sent us the First
Gift of Christmas.  It came, not
in fancy paper, topped off with a

bow.  It was found in a manger,
wearing swaddling clothes.  It
was given free, although it cost

the Father all He had.  He loved
us so much.  The Gift:  the birth of
a Savior.  Happy Birthday, Jesus.
