These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Christmas Treasures

Christmas treasures on the way
to His wondrous birth.
Christmas seen from day to day
of surpassing worth.

Christmas treasures in this week
are often bit by bit.
Christmas wisdom we must seek
for hope, that we may get.

Christmas treasures, little thoughts
hold such awesome truths.
Christmas things, that we were taught
from our early youth.

Christmas treasures, moment's peace.
Coffee cup, so warm
makes a Christmas, known release,
free from all alarms.

Christmas treasures, stop and list
to the bird's lone call.
Christmas hopes and truest bliss
are wrapped in Christ, our all.
