This becomes a season to give, to all with whom we daily live, <br />And to friends, near and far, to show them how loved they are, <br />A special time for us to share, our heart showing them we care, <br />A sharing of our gifts and love, is what this season is made of. <br /> <br />A season souls are behooved, this as many hearts are moved, <br />To display a different attitude, when moved by a festive mood, <br />From a special feeling in the air, moving hearts to fondly share, <br />As hearts and minds conceive, their desire to give and receive. <br /> <br />There’s indeed another side, one from which many people hide, <br />Which is the very initial reason, why we today have this season, <br />Observing throughout this earth, every year a very special birth, <br />The very birth of Christ, our Lord, which by many goes ignored. <br /> <br />This Season that many celebrate, stirs in some a sense of hate, <br />In hearts where there’s no place, for our Lord’s Love and Grace. <br />This isn’t true for those of us, who have, in Christ put their trust, <br />All Believers as the Saviors bride, share His Truth stored inside. <br /> <br />All Truth we’ve stored in our heart, we’re sent by Christ to impart, <br />The fuller sense, Truth and reason, for all this Christmas Season, <br />That child born as Jesus Christ, was born to give us Eternal Life, <br />And when that Truth you believe, New Life in Him you will receive. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©11/2009)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-season-for-sharing/
