Dec 2015
She stands so stoic upon her place
Watching the hustle and bustle in this Christmas race
She sees the light of wonder in the child's eyes
A wonder of what Santa may bring tonight
She is afraid that the meaning is gone
Listening to them sing all of Santa's Christmas songs
Then a hush fell upon the home
Lights were dimmed and a single candle shone
The family of three then left the tree
To the alter they went, in front of the nativity
They fell upon their knees in humbled grace
Thanking God for giving His only son for Mary to raise
The angel then smiled under her stoic face
Seeing that this family, the true meaning, did not forsake
