Wales' Tales 12/15/14



Visions of snowflakes, tinsel and candy,
Popcorn and presents, all of them handy
To make our experience loving and bright
Helping to celebrate one special night.
All of the color, the songs and the candles
Even the music that we know as Handel’s
Try to express the feeling of rapture
That hopes to allow us to finally capture
The joy of the ages, the promise now coming
That beats in our hearts, magnificent drumming
A rhythm in nature that speaks of tomorrow,
The good news of hope that erases our sorrow,
For on this great day, we celebrate birth,
A vision from heaven that comes to this earth
To take away hatred, to heal the down-hearted
To take us all back to the time when it started
A Garden of Eden has now been restored,
Because of this child in which mercy is poured.
The chasm that sin has created ere long,
Erased by the power of love ever strong.
This baby has come to set us all free,
That we might become what we were to be.
It starts in a stable, he stands by the Sea,
His message of life is for folks just like me.
He speaks to the heart, to deep in the soul,
And promises each that they can be made whole.
But those who reject him, who just do not see,
Will put him to death by nails on a tree.
But death will not hold him
He springs back to life,
To end human struggle and end human strife.
And all of it starts with this humble increase,
And ends with the promise of eternal…
                                                Peace,
