The Starry Night of Christmas

Beneath a sky of silver gleam,

The world awakes from winter’s dream.

The frosted earth, a quiet grace,

Adorns itself in time’s embrace.

A star shines bright, a guiding light,

Through velvet shadows of the night.

It whispers hope, it sings of peace,

A love that bids all sorrows cease.

The bells resound, their joyful ring,

A melody the heavens bring.

Their echo dances through the air,

A song of kindness everywhere.

The hearth glows warm, the candles burn,

As hearts to giving ways return.

The laughter weaves through every hall,

A tapestry that binds us all.

For Christmas is not gifts and gold,

But stories cherished, gently told.

It’s hands that clasp, it’s hearts that share,

A world united in a prayer.

So let the star above remind,

Of miracles for humankind.

A light that shone, so long ago,

Still warms the earth with its soft glow.

This Christmas night, may love take flight,

To fill each home with radiant light.

And may the starry night impart,

A timeless peace within each heart.
