Just because it doesn't get old

Christmas doesn't get old even if its message is sometimes forgotten in the humdrum of life spent reaching for things that don't matter to the spirit. "X" now marks the spot where Christ used to dwell. Let us not CROSS out the Reason for the Season; instead, bring Him back to CHRISTmas.

A Christmas Poem

Christmas means a little bit more
than trimmings on a tree & presents from a store.
It means more than tags attached to boxes & bags,
the ribbons & twirls that make kids swirl.
It dwells in families gathered in good cheer,
in ever-loving friendships far & near.
Grinch or Scrooge don't matter
for Christ alone is the answer.
'Tis really no puzzle how it came to be
'cause it lives in believers like you & me!
