The Point of Christmas

Tinsel glitters

All over town and houses.

Vendors clamour

To put a little bit of glamour

To their fares

and wares.

Shoppers swagger

Throwing around yearend bonuses.

Girls and boys look

Forward to do's.

Mothers and fathers

Don't even fuss over don'ts. Oh bother!

Drunkards stagger

Over too many a Cabernet.

For 'tis the season to be jolly.

Never mind the folly,

But golly,

What's the whole point of Christmas?

"The Lord himself shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." Isaiah 7:14 KJV

"... Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." Matthew 1:23

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." John 3:16-17
