People are searching.
Searching for the perfect thing
as their offering for this season.
And we spend and wrap and send and give,
little thinking of the reason:
The frail child born in the night
to bring eternal life and light.
So when we are all wrapped up
in shopping sprees
and Christmas trees –
in the whirl of festivities,
and twinkling lights...
will we think back to the miracle
of the first Christmas night?
