Please add a poem on your favorite Christmas symbol ~ BRIAN
This poem is presented as a Blank Verse 7 - 7 Sonnet

My favourite thing about Christmas
Is being with family and friends
Those you don't spend time with
And seeing them once again.
But Christmas is loosing it's meaning
It's turning into gifts and toys
Another reason for presents
Instead of celebrating your life's joys.
That's why my favourite Christmas Symbol
Is remembering those you hold dear
Because even if you don't see them
In your heart, they're always near.

I LIKE TO CELEBRATE CHRISTS BIRTHDAY ~ AMEN
************************************
Another great symbol for me is .....
The word C H R I S T M A S ~ WHICH means the feast
Of the LORD JESUS CHRIST ~ What we
Celebrate id His 2016 Birthday
Because JESUS is alive ~ AMEN
We always have a Birthday Cake
With a single CANDLE which we light
Because JESUS id the LIGHT of the WORLD ~ AMEN

Thanks fror reading ~ Please add anotger poem ~ Thanks BRIAN

my favorite part about Christmas it helping my family with the tree and decorating it and the house at the same time and waiting for Christmas morning to come and my other favorite thing about Christmas is waking up to see smiles on my family's face though it is a pain that every minute there has to be a picture taken. but still Christmas is the day our lord Jesus was born we are to celebrate it with love and kindness just as much of the kindness Jesus gave us!!! enjoy your Christmas everyone!!!!!!!!

What I love about Christmas is being able to
Give something to someone you love and
Seeing the response in their eyes..
It always seems so much more special
At Christmas than at any other time of
The year, birthdays etc.
For me in this world there are Givers,
and there are Takers....
I am very much a giver......not just in
Gifts but in, time,friendship,help,
Advice and a Shoulder to cry on...
So for me the symbol of Giving!!!

My favorite part of the Christmas season
Is the message that it holds
We celebrate Christ's birthday,
which goes often untold.
And though Christmas isn't an exact date
Its reason is what is most important
We should not be sad nor should we hate
Christmas is about loving,
as Christ Jesus did when he gave his life for us.
This is the real reason for Christmas.
Don't say Happy Holidays.... It should be Merry Christmas....

CHRISTMAS IS ALL ABOUT THE BOY ~ THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
*****************************************************
See among the Winter's snow
Born for us on Earth below
See the Lamb of God appears
Promised from eternal years
**********************
See ~ within a manger lies
He who formed the starry skies
He who throned in height sublime
Sat among the Cherubim
**************************
Say you watching Shepherds say
What your joyful news today
Wherefore haveyou left your sheep
On the lonely Mountain steep
**************************
Hail thou ever blessed morn
Hail redemptions happy dawn
Sing through all Jesusalem
CHRIST IS BORN IN BETHLEHEM !
*******************************************
Thanks for reading ~ more poems please ~ BRIAN !

The love you get on a Christmas time
When you are allowed to spend more than a dime
But do you really need the present
at least try to remember your descent
we all are drowned by the living lights
but most forgets our Jesus Christ
Never forget why this celebration was made
not for Santa his Elves but for Jesus' fade

LOVE CAME DOWN AT CHRISTMAS ~ JESUS SON OF GOD
****************************************
CHRISTMAS is a time for love
Fora homeless child a pair of gloves
We pack shoe boxes in our Towns
Chocolate books and dressing gowns
Eastern Europe still quite poor
Kids in Romania needing more
No beds ~ sleeping on the floor
About £5 to fill a box ~ don't go wild
For Franklin Graham and CHRISTMAS CHILD !
LOVE at CHRISTMAS~ the best yet
Is what you GIVE ~ not what you GET !
