Here is a great Christmas poem written by Yvette (Judi Rolley White's "little sister"). It is very well done and expresses so many good thoughts that I'm posting it even though I haven't talked to Judi/Yvette to get permission!! I could never do something like this!! Very well done, Yvette!!
I found many
items while shopping the mall,
but what I
most wanted was nowhere at all.
I passed by
the games & remote-controlled
cars, cell
phones & ipods, electric guitars.
I searched
for a creche, but I didn't find one.
I asked for
help and was told there are none.
They've
played Christmas music since last Halloween,
while real
live carolers aren't to be seen.
The thing
that I want can't be packaged & sold,
it's the
spirit of Christmas, the spirit of old.
It's family
& friends, and it's doing for others,
it's treating
ALL people like sisters & brothers.
It's finding
the beauty of new fallen snow,
when sun
strikes the surface & snow diamonds glow.
It's looking
at starlight that fills the night skies,
it's momma
cow calling her calf who replies.
Inside my own
self is the best place to start,
my search for
the spirit that lives in my heart.
It's
Christmas, it's Christmas out here on the range.
May peace and
love spread to the world and bring change.
Merry
Christmas!!
