It's That Time

It’s that time again
When the lights are shining
Tinsel wrapped around the Christmas Tree

He’s right here among us
But we pass him by
For the gifts around the tree

The Feast goes on
And the babe is forgotten
Wrapped in his swaddling clothes

We don’t realize
He is given for us

It’s that time again
And we are still blind

Great poem! It's sad how true it is, too. If only more people would realize what it's all about. Yes, Christmas is about giving. But many forget that the most important gift is the one Christ gave to us-- Himself. Nice job on your poem! I love it!

It is a truth universally acknowledged that Jane Austen rules!
