If I were an ornament on a Christmas tree, <br />I would be an angel, swinging and moving <br />from every twig and branch. <br />I would strip the Christmas tree <br />of its burning candles and replace them <br />with the burning flame in human hearts. <br /> <br />I would move away the wrapped presents <br />under the Christmas tree and order <br />those with flaming love in their hearts <br />to give the wrapped presents <br />to those who do not have. <br /> <br />I would sing hymns of long time ago <br />of the coming of the most awaited Savior. <br />I would let the Christmas tree <br />stand as promised abundant life <br />to every woman, man, youth and child. <br /> <br />I would be an angel, a living ornament, <br />giving life to a lifeless Christmas tree. <br /> <br />_____________________________________ <br />As response to the title challenge of Westly<br /><br />Elizabeth Padillo Olesen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-were-an-ornament-on-a-christmas-tree/
