There Was an Angel Outside My Window

Dear Readers,

         It is Christmas time! I hope you all a very Merry Christmas. Please enjoy this special poem I wrote. 

Signed,

Kayla  

 On Christmas Eve, in a quiet town

Where my siblings and I lived

We dressed in our nightshirts and gowns

Awaiting presents to receive and give.

I was tucked in my bed

And said my prayers

I flopped into bed

Snuggled up with my toy bears.

Later that night I was fast asleep

Dreaming jolly, pleasant dreams

Of dolls, bikes, and other toys to keep

While dreaming of peppermints and ice cream.

Thud! Something woke me

From my slumber.

Was it who I thought it be?

A man in a red suit, and a belly as thick as lumber?

A bright light was around my room

Cascading from my window

It was bolder that a marigold’s bloom.

What a marvelous glow!

There was an angel outside my window

In his grace majesty

I was still amazed by his bright glow

That shined all over me.

He did not say a word at first.

Only smiled at me sweetly.

After a while, he burst,

“Rejoice in Jesus! Be glad in He!”

The angel flew away

To the rejoicing Heavens above

The angels rejoiced and sway,

Singing of God’s grace and Love.

Christmas morning finally came

My brothers and sisters were excited

We got bouncy balls, yo-yos, hair ribbons, and a game

Each of us were delighted

Yet, no gift could ever amaze me

Like the angels presence and words

Full of life and holy glee

It was like nothing I’ve ever heard.

Every Christmas, I always remember

The sweet angel’s words and hymn.

Now, every 25^th of December,

I know that Christmas is truly about Jesus, about Him.
