Dec 2017
Quiet of the storm New Beginning
Thanksgiving
Propels us into night gear
Christmas almost here
Shop tell you drop
Christmas Day
Came and left as swiftly
I was tired from
All the hustle and bustle
Sitting at the dinner table I asked
What did you get Jesus
On his birthday
Blank stares from a
Confused group
A nervous roar of laughter
the children listening
unsure of what I was after
I smiled
Talking over
A Side comment or two
I began to explain; honesty, faith,and love
Those are gifts Jesus would want
Still the group seem lost in what answer
I was looking for
Then I heard it
Someone with a bit too much
Christmas Cheer
Cleared his throat and said
“Well Honestly
I gave him nothing”
Nervious roar of laughter
deafened my ears
My heart was so sad
I smiled and excused myself
From the table
Charity, patience,and forgiveness
Begins at home
All I can think of Is
Jesus
Dying for us
Saying
“Lord for give them they know not what they do”
I have so much to learn
That was awkward so not how I thought the conversation would go
