With breakfast over the kids were set
to start helping mother prepare
the first of their decoration
and they did so with the greatest care.
“We will start with an Advent wreath,”
said mother as she sat them down
“it will be like many others have
in churches and houses in our town.”
We’ll put four candles in a circle
three purple or blue and one pink
with a big white one in the center
to symbolize Jesus when we think.
The circle stands for eternity
because it has no beginning or end
just like Jesus’ love is forever
and he will always be our friend.
We’ll start each week with a candle
and light and read scripture and pray
so we can mark our trip to Christmas
as we get closer every day.
We’ll light the pink candle the third week
as we anticipate the great joy
which is coming our direction
when we recall the birth of the boy.
