Merry Christmas!

A little Christmas poem inspired by cross-country texts about our Christmas Eve breakfasts:

Carrot cake in a bowl

Or egg in a hole:

The choice is up to you. 

It depends on your needs

And what else you have to do.

But whatever the case,

I hope you have a smile on your face.

It’s Christmas Eve 

And you better believe

It’s a day worth celebrating

No matter your breakfast.

Christ came to earth

Through virgin birth

As a baby boy

To give us great joy.

Eat, drink, and be merry,

For our sins He did carry

To make for us an eternal home

Where we won’t care about meals,

But will instead worship Jesus, in person, for real!

Merry Christmas Eve to all.

May we all heed heaven’s call

To enjoy the gifts of today

Even as we await the greatest gift—

Days eternal in heaven

With Christ Jesus our Lord!
