Poetry: Alone on Christmas

by BJ Burke

Created on: December 18, 2009   Last Updated: December 21, 2009

Where Are You Christmas

Where are you Christmas?  Why can't I find you?
I'm here in the gift of a cherished friend
I’m here in the smile of a stranger
I'm here in a baby's laugh
I'm here in the nuzzle of a favorite pet

I can be seen in the twinkle of stars in night sky
I can be seen in the eyes of true love
I can be seen in bright white fallen snow
I can be seen in the children's play

I am felt in the warmth from the fire
I am felt in the open doors of church
I am felt in a comforting hug
I am felt through each beat of your heart.

I found you Christmas
You are right in front of me
I found you Christmas
You are all around me
I found you Christmas
Wrapped around my soul
I found you Christmas
You were with me all along.
