Christmas Love

Love sat under the Christmas tree,
wrapped in paper and tied
with a bow.

For the children to find
on Christmas Day,
so a world of happiness
they could know.

In another house
just down the street,
there were no gifts all shiny and new.
yet love was still there, Just hidden from view.

For Christmas love is a magic thing
that needs not a box
wrapped in gold.

It comes form the heart,
is given with joy,
and can not be
bought or sold.
