Christmas Eve Ponderings (poem) by Bette A. Stevens + Christmas Music
Christmas Eve Ponderings
The last cookie baked, the final gift wrapped.
Christmas Eve is upon us…
It’s time to relax.
Christmas music is gently reminding us why
Lord Jesus, the Christ Child…
Came down from on high.
He came as a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes.
Lived among us on earth…
God’s gifts to bestow.
Loving God, loving others —Christ bought with his life
He epitomized love…
Not anger or strife.
God’s love is a precious gift we’re to share
Not with just those we know…
But with folks everywhere.

November is a month when the last leaves of a glorious season in Maine are soon to be whisked away. It’s also a month when families and friends gather to celebrate Thanksgiving across the USA. Whether you are planning to travel near or far, or maybe just to stay at home where it’s cozy and warm, I wish you all the Happiest of Holidays! ~Bette A. Stevens, Maine author
