29-Day Giving Challenge

Something's in the air, can you feel it?
It comes to us the same time every year.
And memories we had when we were children,
Ascend within our hearts to bring good cheer.

It's christmas 'round the world with much excitement.
As customs and traditions come to view,
A season of enchantment and enlightenment,
Bringing peace and love and joy in all we do.

May the Spirit that you feel be with you always,
On christmas and each day the whole year through.
As children know His love and joy and laughter,
Let Christmastime renew God's love in you.

Blessings and renewed love! Effie

Love your poems, Effie. Found this one. Do you remember it?

There's More to Christmas...

There's more, much more to Christmas
Than candle-light and cheer;
It's the spirit of sweet friendship
That brightens all the year;
It's thoughtfulness and kindness,
It's hope reborn again,
For peace, for understanding
And for goodwill to men!

You could have written it for 29Gifts!
