    The Spirit of Christmas Love Poems

    The poems in this section celebrate the warmth, kindness, and love that fill the Christmas season, highlighting the power of human connection and generosity.

  1. Christmas Love
    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer


    There is something about Christmas,
    That's different than all the rest,
    It's a time when people act
    Truly at their best.

    The difference I think is
    The love that is in the air.
    People share with others,
    And truly do care.

    Love can change the world,
    If we practiced Christmas love.
    If we kept it all year long,
    It would please God above.

    So don't lose that feeling,
    That love can create.
    Love does make such a difference,
    Oh, love is so great!



  2. You Can't Buy
    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer


    If I could wrap a present of something
    That you can't buy,
    I would wrap you up some love,
    With a bow that I have tied.

    The love we find at Christmas
    Is not a material thing.
    It is love that the world needs,
    And change it would bring.

    If our focus was on keeping love
    All the year round,
    More people would be happy,
    There would be fewer frowns.

    Think of the love that God showed us
    When He sent his only Son.
    He was telling the world that,
    He loved each and every one.



  3. Think of the love that God showed us When He sent his only Son.

  4. Christmas
    Poet: Mark Edwards, S.M.


    Now comes the time when love holds sway,
    And grown-ups share in children's play.
    And houses glow with varied light
    And make a fairy-time of night,
    And life is rich and warm and full,
    And heartstrings feel the tender pull.



  5. Wishing Love
    Poet: Gertrude Rosenkild


    Wishing the joy,
    The faith and the love
    That God in his mercy
    Sends down from above.

    Wishing the love
    Of the Christ Child dear -
    The love that God sent
    To His children here.

  7. A Time of Love Divine
    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer


    Christmas is a time of love divine,
    When God's precious gift to us does shine.
    His only Son, sent to bring us peace,
    A love so pure, it will never cease.

    Let's share this love with hearts so true,

  8. Because
    Poet: Mary Stoner Wine


    I saw the candlelight's soft glow,
    A gleaming path across the snow,

    And through the window's filmy lace
    There came a radiant, subtle grace;

    For Christmas trees with burning light,
    Adorned to greet the holy night,

    From every window, each hearthstone,
    With hopes expectant gladness shone.

    Oh, homes so beautiful, so bright,
    Reflecting joy and peace and light,

    Oh, homes that send through winter's chill
    Your silent hymn of peace, goodwill,

    Why do your cozy hearth fires burn,
    And those you sheltered now return?

    Because, to you, from heaven above
    There came God's gift, God's gift of love.



  9. There is love at Christmas because Christmas was born of love. Let us, each one, keep alive this spirit of love and glorify God. Josepha Emms

  10. The Christmas Miracle
    Poet: Zelma S. Dennis


    The miracle of Christmas
    Is the gift of Love,
    That shines like radiant star-rays
    From the heavens above.

    It comes and blesses every need
    Of the human heart,
    And her the Christ-like spirit
    Inspires every part.

    The miracle of Christ-love
    Now I give to you,
    To illuminate your Christmas
    And all the whole year through.

    It has been longing for.
