Our Day after Christmas

 

By Walt Perryman

It’s the day after Christmas and all through the house,
Our dog, Daisy has already woken me and my spouse.

We really had a good Christmas; I can truthfully say!
We did not have a tree, or any gifts to return today.

But Jesus was with us in our souls and our hearts!
To have a true Christmas, it only takes these two parts.

We’ll ask God to stay in our hearts every time we pray.
And ask Him to celebrate forever with us like yesterday.
