This poem about the holidays, Christmas Reminders from Little Hands, touches us where we keep our hearts -- with our kids and their kids. Neat.

I was encouraged by your verse today. The handmade ornaments from our children are gentle reminders of what family means and the love that they had when they made these things for us. This is very well written.

A very well-written heartfelt poem about the Christmas holidays and the children's creativity that comes out when they start to decorate the Christmas tree when Mom is not around.

This lovely, moving piece has really touched me, making me smile AND
tear up! You have smoothly included faith, hope and love and the biblical
declaration that love is the greatest.

One thing: Stanza 1--"Shown" should be "shone."

This poem reminds me of the song lyrics in Jack and Diane, "life goes on even after the thrill of living is gone." I think of it as as you get older Christmas isnt as magical. But I disagree, Christmas is magical and life is still just as thrilling. Nice job.
