Starbuck Poem = Christmas Love and More
Christmas is coming and I'm all alone,
With no one to snuggle at night.

There, in my doorway, it's the face I love
Such a beautiful present to send.
Now, I am happy and dancing around,
With a permanent smile on my face.
As children are singing their Christmas love songs,
And the world is a wonderful place.

Of peace, and good will to all mankind,
And hallelujah to earth's new king.
There were those angels, who did not sing,
For they had passed through the devil's gate.
They knew this young lad belonged to God,
