The Clock for Joy is Ticking
Silence dwelled the globe as
gifts of shimmering snow swayed
like drifting in a dream. The gears to
scattering joy had just begun clicking
on the clock of forever.
It is though the music orchestrating in
the background that brought the fire in
the fireplace to life, as had the spirits
of the birth of Christ arose.
Human notes of music played only faint
memories in the lips of the elves
tucked deep in the North pole.
It stayed as a flicker of light, reminding
the veiled meaning of the yearly missions
to spread gifts wrapped in gleaming papers
of cherry red and deep green to kids
all over the universe of Earth.
—Christmas is a time for happiness to be spread :))
