Poem - Wrapped Gifts


Wrapped Gifts
O. Kris Widmer
 Written   12/17/2015


At Christmas,
the child that
has everything

suddenly realizes
that happiness
is not found

in the wrapped
packages,
but it is found

being wrapped
in parental arms,
being read

the story
when the earth
was wrapped

in God’s love.
