Christmas is RED.
It's a bright shiny sled.
It's candy canes,
and toy store lanes.
It's sprinkles on sweet bread.
Christmas is BROWN
It's pinecones scattered round...
It's a cradle soft with hay
And a donkey's gentle bray.
It's God within
a baby's skin
on that very first Christmas Day.
All the colors come together when readers are reminded that Christmas is YOU- you're a part of the story, the joy and the glory ! Matthew shows us again and again that the holidays are nothing without being with the people we love, celebrating treasured traditions, and making new memories-all in vivid color.
