Poem: Delighted – 25/12/19

 I am delighted 
 by the gift
 you gave to me,
  
 it’s not ordinary,
 it’s holy
 and it’s beautiful to me.
  
 It’s something which sings of praises
 both far and wide,
 a little figurine set, a nativity scene.
  
 I’ve never owned one before
 though I know the tale well,
 such beauty, adoring Mary, proud Joseph, 
 fresh faced baby Jesus. 
  
 It resonates within me,
 this miraculous scene,
 three so alive in the arrival,
 this is the true meaning of Christmas.
