A Poem

Here's just a little poem I want to share with all my readers, a little hint into the depths of my soul. Enjoy!

A Girl's Life

She goes to work each morning,
She comes home late each night.
She makes believe she's happy,
that everything's all right.
She laughs away her sorrow,
her loneliness she hides.
When evening comes and she's alone,
to God, she then confides:

"Lord, I want to do Your Will,
though it's so hard to do.
I want to do what's best for me,
accept what comes from You.
But Lord, is it all right to ask
if You can let me see,
that though I'm so alone right now,
I will not always be?
Lord, I want to do Your Will,
and not put up a fight.
But oh! I'm so forlorn and sad,
and so alone tonight."

Sometimes she sees a family,
a mother, son, and dad.
Sometimes she sees a newborn babe-
a child she hasn't had.
Sometimes she's quite contented.
Sometimes she wants to cry.
When morning comes she folds her hands,
and looks beyond the sky:

"Christ, I want to do Your Will,
though it's so hard to do.
I want to do Your best for me,
by doing all for You.
Just promise me, my God, my Christ,
Whose love is whole and true:
One day not far, you'll give to me,
a man reflecting You.
A godly man, a kindred soul,
my chosen spouse and love.
The one who's love will bring forth fruit,
and honour You, above.

No One Will Be Sleeping On the Night Of Christmas Eve

Merry Christmas Eve to you all! I hope you all have a blessed Christmas day, and a wonderful Merry Christmas. I hope you receive the one true gift you wanted this year. For me, I pray I receive my gift too.

Isn't that line above so true? I remember lying in bed on Christmas Eve, unable to fall asleep, so excited and filled with anticipation that my insides shivered. I remember being able to hear the Christmas music playing on the radio in the living room, and when I lay very still in bed, I thought I could hear Santa on the roof. It took me forever to fall asleep, and I remember waking up, feeling a tingle in my toes, and know that it was Christmas Day.

Christmas Eve has always been one of my most favourite days. On Christmas Eve, we finish wrapping the presents, and bake ourselves into a super frenzy. As of 6:45pm tonight, we have finished making batches of pizzelles, biscotti, truffles, snowballs, sugar cookies, shortbread cookies, chocolate-dipped pretzels, and chocolate chip cookies.

Because it's Christmas Eve, I'm going to share another Christmas poem with you. I hope you like it. It was inspired by the picture posted below.

THE ANGEL'S LULLABY

The Babe lay on the Mother's knee,
the Angels gathered 'round.
On bended knee adored Him:
their wingtips brushed the ground.

The faint, sweet smell of heaven,
mixed with the fiddle's tune
rose like a fragrant incense
up to the sickle moon.

"Hosanna!" crooned the angels,
their joyous sigh of love
rising to God's throne on high,
and echoing above.

"Hosanna!" sang the angels,
The stars returned the same.
And all the silence in the night
Called out His holy name.

The Babe lay on the Mother's knee,
the fairest Christmas Rose.
The angels bent to kiss His face,
and guard His sweet repose.
