A Miracle Gift

Christmas has arrived

for a newlywed pair

Who lives alone

with no children there

Lonesome, they visit the park

not having any

Just to be around little

people of plenty

As sad as it seems

it wasn't their choice

They still look forward

for times to rejoice,

They hang the lights,

stockings and candy canes

While holding back tears

and placing no blame

They still wrap presents

together and she still cooks

And says blessings to all

the little people mentioned in

Santa's book,

And by Christmas Eve

with a short list and their prayers said

They light the tree for Santa

And go off to bed

Just to be awaken

just before dawn

their prayers were answered

When a voice shouts out

Onward Donner, Blitzen and Dancer,

So they rush downstairs

to see

The lights dancing

on the tree

And below came a

precious sound

From the most beautiful

present ever found,

With a note that read:

'My name is Miracle

A gift from above

Sent to you on this

Christmas day

From the Heavens,

with Love....
