Where Are You Christmas





Where Are You Christmas



 This year as I struggled so hard
to find my Christmas Spirit
Not the one of celebration of my Precious Savior
for I carry that with me every day of my life
But the one of giving.

You see my pockets were empty
and the promise of the New Year ahead
would leave them of no hope of change.
Half of my joy in Christmas
is the Santa part in being able to give,
especially to my grandchildren.
Oh they would have understood
when I told them
"I'm sorry, but Nana just doesn't have it this year"
but I would not understand for it is my joy...
and this year it appeared
that was going to be the dreaded thing
I would have to say and accept ...

Until...

I was sitting at my desk this past week
when a group of awesome people
showed me both sides of Christmas.

Finding Christmas

Twas' the week before Christmas
I was feeling quite blue
How could I give
Well I really had not a clue

Times are so hard
for everyone it seems
This world is full
of many shattered dreams

Christmas this year
not knowing what to do
its about My precious Saviors birth
but I still believe in Santa too

The real meaning of this season
for all is cost free
but the Santa part
takes money you see.

My dilemma and pain
in Santa I would fall short
This year no gifts I could give
I would have to report

When much to my surprise
my Santa did appear
No gifts to give?
Well they removed that fear

I can not begin to express how deeply
my heart they did touch
and words can not convey
my thank you so very much

My heart filled so full
tears spilled upon my face
my worry and pain
they so quickly erased

My search for Santa
was brought to an end
and was given to me
by such awesome friends.

The love that was given
gave my heart such a lift
Merry Christmas to you all
and thank you 094 for this gift.

Hugs, Love and So very humbled

You have given me the greatest gift of all
... Love ...

Where Are You Christmas
