Christmas Poem Honoring Newtown Children

I had to share ---

Twas' 11 days before Christmas, around 9:38 when 20 beautiful children stormed through heaven's gate. Their smiles were contagious, their laughter filled the air. They could hardly believe all the beauty they saw there. They were filled with such joy; they didn't know what to say. They remembered nothing of what had happened earlier that day. “where are we?" asked a little girl, as quiet as a mouse. “This is heaven" declared a small boy. "We’re spending Christmas at God's house”. When what to their wondering eyes did appear, but Jesus, their savior, the children gathered near. He looked at them and smiled, and they smiled just the same. Then He opened His arms and He called them by name. And in that moment was joy, that only heaven can bring those children all flew into the arms of their King. As they lingered in the warmth of His embrace
, one small girl turned and looked at
Jesus' face. And as if He could read all the questions she had He gently whispered to her, "I'll take care of mom and dad. “then He looked down on earth, the world far below He saw all of the hurt, the sorrow, and woe, then He closed His eyes and He outstretched His hand, “Let My power and presence re-enter this land! “May this country be delivered from the hands of fools” “I’m taking back my nation. I'm taking back my schools! “Then He and the children stood up without a sound. “Come now my children let me show you around. “Excitement filled the space, some skipped and some ran. All displaying enthusiasm that only a small child can. And I heard Him proclaim as He walked out of sight, “in the midst of this darkness, I AM STILL THE LIGHT."

Savor Life Like A Ten Thousand Dollar Steak-
poem

The things I say today to let you know it's all you have is now
We pass through, live our best, travel by or stand by but time too flies by
We make exceptions to the rule so we sometimes can skip life's school
We go to the head of the class and pass on out the door
Meeting the challenges of the day staying in the moment...

We look around admire all we have achieved
The very one who say they don't; carry their heart on their sleeve
Is but the one who surely does but does with so much love
Achieved that happy home children and a dog to roam
Happy as can be and content beyond belief  and yet,
from old age there'll be no relief
If we are fortunate enough to be called old, it is a blessing
We will arrive with memories of the life we've lived
When we get there will we remember what we took or what we give?
Our life reflected when we look back speaks for itself
Then others will speak of about us how they felt....

So, this life we have do we brighten up our day and other peoples too?
Can we make some changes to make sure we do?
No need to just pass through life certainly don't want to just stand by
We want to live, love, laugh and cry... before we Never say Good-Bye

Just a kind, "see you soon" will do or a "see you next time" or,
"see you in the next life" It's the "See you" you want to hear
That is the music to ones ear
As the year comes to a close and new one begins
No matter how ruff life gets, as long as your alive it's not the end
No not at all!
So Come Alive you All and let the NEW YEAR BEGIN

(see you soon, catch you next time, see ya when I see ya)
