CHRISTMAS POEM

BY: Ben Dunk

Carollers’ songs across the velvet black night

Herald Christmas gladness into sight

After Him is Christmas hight

Time to consecrate his plight

And although we try with all our might

To keep ‘our star’ glowing bright

There’s always a background feeling of fright

Our behavior unfulfilled as right

We’ll not deserve to join him in light
