R is for red as red is for rose Red is for bright light -- A famed reindeer's nose R is for red and red is for ribbon Wrapping the boxes And gifts that are given Red is for eating Like chocolate and cherries Red goes with green Like holly and berries Green is for garland For fir tree and pine No matter how fashioned green Christmas is fine. But purple's not red and purple's not green And hope isn't fed when Advent's unseen Purple shows patience Awaiting the day Purple for royalty Yet on the way Red and green the season wronging Purple the hue of holy longing Seeking the Presence heaven sent Purple is right for His advent. #incarnateadvent Comments are closed.
