THE BOY AND HIS DRUM

THE BOY AND HIS DRUM

I looked up in the night 
Sky and saw a bright 
Light far off in the distance

I could hear drums playing 
And they were singing a song

About a new baby i followed
The sound and thats where i found
   
The boy and his drum by the 
Manger and the light in the
 
Manger was bright and the
Boy and his drum played
 
All night and as they sing
A song about the new born

king the sun came up and 
The bells are ringing in the church

Many people walked by with gifts
And the joy in there eyes when 
They saw the new boy king, 

THE BOY AND HIS DRUM.

Thank you Marion 
funny this took me three days
To write frustrated over three days because it didn’t come out the way I wanted to do
ripping up and throwing away
and this morning very early getting it up and riding it Here on the passion of poetry I’m very tired

Our dear Friend Greg,

How lovely you have alluded to in your own words, "The Little Drummer Boy".  As we all now sit in fear of this horrible pandemic, it is so nice to escape reality for a while, and lose ourselves in beautiful writings like this.
Have a merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

All our love,
Linda and Larry xxx
