Christmas Wish Poem by Ima Ryma

You are stationed so far away,
Serving your nation in times bad.
We'd be apart on Christmas Day.
I know that makes both of us sad.
Tonight on Christmas Eve I went
Outside and walked through fallen snow.
And up into the sky I sent
My wish to a star all aglow.
Then back to our home went I,
And fell asleep thinking of you.
Awakened, I began to cry.
My wish for Christmas had come true.

I wished upon a Christmas star,
And you and I together are.
