Bones Bones

by Keith D Allison

On a Christmas tree night
deep within the cave
glimmer of light
twinkled of the moisture
upon the eye
wrapping of the season upon the heart

Tidings of joy gifts of the heart
the ancient story of the star
of a child the gift to mankind
to sing the songs
ribbons and lace to our heart's

It is the time when the children laugh and smile
mothers and fathers know the joy
the gentle heart of time
I know, I know

The Bones, the bones
it is I
who placed them
upon the cross
