This week I would like to feature the poetry of a fellow writer and friend, Barbara Ayton. She joined our writer’s club a few years ago and it’s been a pleasure getting to know her. Her sweet, quiet spirit quickly captured our group. Thank you Barbara for sharing your poems with us.
Can you tell Barbara how much you enjoyed her Christmas poem by sharing in the comment section? Thanks!
It’s Christmas time and all around
A treasury of light is found
The brilliance of the shimmering snow
The softness of a candle’s glow.
The streets have been transformed with light
And evergreens – a shining sight
The lights in eyes of little ones
Is treasured for the years to come.
Yet, still the most amazing light
Came from above one starlit night
As angels set the sky aglow
The Light was born for all to know.
Very beautiful Barb! Each phrase fostered warm images of Christmases past. Thank you for the stroll down “Memory Lane.”
