Moms Favourite Poem

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below, with tiny lights, like Heaven`s stars reflecting on the snow. The site is so spectacular, please wipe away that tear, for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear, but the sounds of music can’t compare with the Christmas choir up here. I have no words to tell you of the joy their voices bring, for it is beyond description to hear the angels sing. I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart. But I’m not so far away, we really aren’t apart. So be happy for me dear ones, you know I hold you near, and be glad I’m spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I sent you each a special gift from my heavenly home above, I sent you each a memory of undying love. After all love is a gift more precious than pure gold, it was always most important in the stories Jesus told. Please love and keep each other as my Father said to do, for I can’t count the blessings or the love He has for you. So, have a Merry Christmas and wipe aways that tear, remembering spending Christmas with Jesus this year.
