Wednesday's Poetry Day ~ The Christmas Visit

Getting to see some houses in my area starting to decorate with so many beautiful lights on my way home last Friday evening from my niece and nephew's, my mind began to form a poem. Being tired of two days of fun with family I forgot about it until Saturday night when I spotted this photo on Pinterest. Yes I was able to copy the photo and use it. Anyway I hope you like the poem. I know I do... 😇

The Christmas Visit 

As I stand here in the driveway
In the cold and falling snow
I can see from your windows
Pretty lights that softly glow

I start walking toward the door
Where a holly wreath is hanging
As I ring the doorbell to enter
I can hear the children singing

As I enter into this joyous home
That is filled with faith and love
And greeted by my loving family
That I am so happily proud of

The yule log in the fireplace
Dancing flames a warming sight
Christmas carols are playing now
As this makes for a perfect night

Here we are in hand and prayer
As we celebrate our Lord's birth
We can almost hear the angels sing
Of good will and peace on earth.
