7 Ways of Looking at Christmas


Hospitality
Rejoicing
Joyousness
Festivities
Embracing
Faith
Yearning

A sudden vanishing of grimace,
Transfigured into amiable smiles.

The subtle warmth in the depth of peoples’ hearts.
Finally escaping its protective guardian.
Being shared with everyone who strolls by.

The reminiscing of years passed.
Sewing the separated fragments of families back together.
A reminder of the unfathomable love possessed by each member.

The ultimate teaching of one of the most priceless lessons,
In giving we truly receive.
The ringing of tiny, unadorned bells,
How the slightest gesture can emphatically change a life.

The red and green incandescence floating in the atmosphere.
The twinkling merriment in every child’s eyes.

A season of blessings and unity,
Along with nutriment, endowments, laughter, and desire.
Souls tied together over one common entity,
The majestic birth of a faith.
