The Christmas Star (True Story)

Crystal Hope

One Christmas Eve
when I was four years old
I climbed into my bunk bed
shivering from the cold.
Anxious for Santa to come
I asked my sister if I could
crawl in her bed.
I laid on the opposite side
and lifted up my head.
Surprising my little heart
outside my window not so far.
Something I only thought was
in the Bible but there was
the shining Christmas star.
Shimmering brightly
outside my window
I watched it glitter
and I watched it glow.
It stayed there all night
on that night of December.
It was so cool to me
and I will always remember.

    I believe you. I believe that God shows himself most to children because it is usually they who have the most faith. Keep writing.
    Have a Merry Christmas eve eve,
    a Merry Christmas eve,
    and a Merry Christmas.
    Persistence is key
