Miracles and Magic

Have you seen a miracle?
Felt one in your life?
Something happens unexpectedly
and the timing feels just right?

Is there something else?
Something more than we can see?
Something much much bigger
than you or than me?

What if that presence,
let’s leave it nameless now,
what if it is always working
behind the scenes somehow?

Some will say I’m crazy,
that this is all just bunk.
I’m not here to tell you
what’s real and what is junk.

All I’m really asking
is have you’ve ever wondered?
Are we inside of something
bigger than the biggest thunder?

This season we are in
all started with a big big story.
Many years have passed since then
and that tale has fallen from glory.

But as I sit here now
and delve into it all,
I wonder if I feel something?
A small still quiet call?

I think we all feel miracles
at one time or another.
We may call them different things.
The magic we may smother.

My wish for you on this day
is that a miracle moves your life.
Maybe brings in some wonder
or takes away some strife,

fills your heart with love,
sets your soul afire.
You feel some Christmas Magic.
Truth Goodness Beauty do inspire.

Thank you to my dear friend Colleen and to my dad, both of whom brought up the idea of miracles to me within a few hours of one another. ✨
