carols (a sonnet)

Date posted:

‘ I think I have found the problem' she said
‘it has been written many times before’
and how do I write words that can be read
when all I see is a long list of chores?

But still I will try to sit here and write
‘bout Him who was born all those years ago
who entered in on that one holy night
and came that we could all be still and know

that He was sent to set the captives free
and came to remove all our guilt and shame
He was born to die for both you and me
to heal the brokenhearted, blind and lame.

Yes many carols have been writ before
this, a reminder that there will be more
