Baby's First Christmas




You hung the lights on the railings with such precision

Fluffing the gentle cotton snow until the white lights pierced through with a perfect gleam

Precious child
Precious son
Your very first Christmas with a new devotion illuminating your heart

It’s that time of year again but everything has changed
A Christmas carol will never be the same

My darling, my love
The supernatural lingers when I place my hand in yours

My tangible miracle
We have Jesus’ name written on our souls

Angels rejoice
Knees fall to the ground
A child is born
And in His death you have been born again

I see you walk up to my door as the snow falls
And my heart could burst with an unrelenting joy

A joy that breathes
A joy that transforms

I open my eyes and new life dances all around me

Merry Christmas baby
