Reaching Out
12/24/2007 2:55:55 AM
Reaching Out

I write this note for a reason,
As it is the proper season
That brings memories to the mind
Though long before left behind

Of past times we've all decided
Our best as the story goes
Those Christmas times delighted
As we watch the fires glow

Yet we forget the others
More unfortunate than we
Without fathers and mothers
Without the brightly lit tree

We see our own troubles
And feel they're worse than our neighbors
Yet when we get to know them
We then see all their labors

And so we reach to those
Who need much more than we
As we gather them together
To share our glowing tree

I am grateful for the kind hearts
Who have helped me Christmas past
Those hearts have given me hope
That I can move on and at last

Return to those forgotten
The love of Christmas time
With our own love we impart
We share the glow sublime

We share of what we have
That all may find their peace
And for once perhaps in their lives
Have given them hope and release

May we all enjoy our families
During this holiday season
And share with those in need
Passing on our love, yes Christmas is the reason

Hello Kari!

Bavo! Beautiful poem!

More important, wonderful message.  It has never hurt anyone to reach out to someone less fortunate, but all through the year. 

I hope everyone will be inspired by this beautiful poem to reach out and be someone's angel!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Joe

Joe,

Thank you for the Christmas Hugs and for your comments. I remember some of the roughest times during the holidays. We had a couple who pulled up to our home with a station wagon full of things for my children and myself.

The best part, was even though I had very little, I was able to make something for the Wife. She was thrilled. I was able to return the love to them with the simplest of gestures. Love!

Merry Christmas!

Kari
