Santa Came To Bethlehem ~*Marge Tindal*~ Santa came to Bethlehem, following a star that rose. He was very curious, as it outshone Rudolph's nose. As he landed on the stable roof, the reindeer were prancing on each little hoof. Down from the sleigh he quickly came, greeted by Three Wise Men calling his name. Santa wanted to know what gifts they brought. This was his job, or so he thought ! Entering the stable he stopped in wonder at the Babe lying in the manger in deepest of slumber. Santa fell to his knees in prayer of blessings. He knew who this was, there was no more guessing. He humbly removed his hat, bowed his balding head, paid homage to the Babe in the manger bed. The Babe awoke and smiled His smile. Of dimpled cheek this Blessed Child. Santa arose from bended knee, said, 'This Babe, this Babe, I just had to see.' Knowing the greatest gift of Eternal Life lay in a manger birthed on this night~ All the gifts that Santa might give pale in comparison to this Babe that now lives. He jumped in his sleigh with new joy as he departed. Away he flew to finish what he started. But, I heard him exclaim as he flew out of sight, 'Happy Birthday Jesus, there's great joy tonight !' ~*~ A Christmas'recall' from way back when ...~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

No wonder Santa knows how important it is to spread good cheer. He's met the king of joy and love! Good poem Marge. Hugs, Deb |

Marge how devinely you have captured the fun in Christmas and it's true devine meaning and combined them together. I'm just so silly that as I read I could see the tears in good ole Saint Nic's eyes as you looked upon the Savior of the world and mine on eyes filled with tears. Once again thank you dear Marge for the feelings and emotions you made me feel. Hugs, Juls |
