Would we blindly trust,
With someone we love,
To bring us up
Looking with bliss
To the one true gift?
This Christmas
We can wish and wish
For beginnings and lists,
But will we believe,
Look, and receive
The one gift
not found under the tree?
I plan to see,
beginning with this:
We are all promised words of love,
The one true gift
who is God above.
I will begin this,
Without any wish or lists,
With our love and His wish.
We are worthy because we are His.
I just wanted to tell you, when you ask for my list,
It’s short
and it reads like this:
There are people who we need to feed.
They don’t have homes like you and me.
They are brothers and sisters,
Wives and misters.
We can give them socks
to heal their blisters.
But every day they pray.
We don’t know the words they say
Because we haven’t listened.
With you and me
They can receive
a gift with our wishes brought from their lists.
And people can see
Love not found
under a tree
When we care
for the least of these.
This is my list,
and I wish you all a Merry Christmas .
