The Twelve Days of Christmas
The Twelve Days of Christmas

(Heavy glass Angel)
On the first day of Christmas
There is a gift for you
It is the Christmas Angel
It knows all that is true

To help make the season bright
A small surprise each day
But to bring smiles to your faces
Is what is hoped and prayed

You have sheltered so many under your wings
As the shepherds’ flock are kept
So it is requested that each night
You place the Angel on this front doorstep!

(Candle)
On the second day of Christmas
The flame of this candle does decree
The story of hope and love they represent
The Henry Clan we hope does see

(Snow Globe)
On the third day of Christmas
A little taste of snow
It is missing in the desert
But not the faith and family that we so well know

(Hanging metal sign ”believe”)
On the fourth day of Christmas
The Angel again does come
You all have so much to offer
But the most precious is from the young

Anything the mind can conceive, it can achieve
A glance through the eyes of Taylor and Jackson
One has no choice but to Believe

(Three kitchen towels)
On the fifth day of Christmas
As many lay in bed
The Angel knows of two
Who carry so much in their heads

They should rest easy
For this it shall be said
Without the sisters’ bond
The cloth would have no thread

(Country Christmas CD)
It’s the sixth day of Christmas
It is a crescent moon
The tides should be low today
But not hope’s lovely tune

The moon is not the only one
Who reflects the light by chance
The gift the Angel speaks of
Is the beloved Lance

(Metal Christmas frame)
On the seventh day of Christmas
The angel tributes all that’s strong
The Henry blood is a given
But two others help them get along

They say all men are created equal
But some are always ahead of the game
Nothing in this world can last
If it does not have a frame

(Red Christmas ball tree)
Angels are among us
Always with you when you pray
But some are present all the time
So on Christmas’s eighth day

To her who is so pure of heart
A warm and gentle spirit from above
The loving kindness and security
Of a mother’s love

(Small glass Angel)
On the ninth day of Christmas
The Angel would simply like to say
I hope everyone has an awesome day!

(Christmas Bell)
On the tenth day of Christmas…
So much magic
So much life
So much power
So much strife

So much to overcome
So much to see
So much love
So much to be

So strong of heart
Nowhere a hole
So wise of spirit
Glen Henrys soul

(Two kids place settings/backpacks)
On the eleventh day of Christmas
The Angel gives thanks
For an inspiration the distance
Of the oceans’ banks

Over the past several months
Some of had the privilege to see
The ineffable strength a true family can be

Lisa creates paths
Lori lights the way
Gregg keeps all on track
Bob saves the day

Jackson and Taylor bring so much light
Lance insures hope will never take flight
Sometimes it is hard to find the exhaust
But with Karen’s intuition, warmth and compassion
Courage is never lost

If the Dream Team were a vessel
A mighty ship it would be
But without a coach it could not get across the sea

But this Team does
And like a “Bullet” it flies
With such a “Father” and “Papa”
You wont believe your eyes

(A frame w/the word…Believe)
(Christmas)
BELIEVE…Merry Christmas!

Love,
The Frank Family
