There was a little Drummer boy
Lost so long a go
Then he heard the angels singing
And know just where to go

He followed the brightest star
Shinning so high above
To a quiet lonely stable
But a shelter filled with love

Long before the prophets spoke
Of a sacred night to come
With the birth of a heavenly son
And the time of sin be done

But the Drummer boy just watched in awe
As he finally understood
That the child in the makeshift crib
Would be everything kind and good
The little drummer boy has always been my favorite Christmas story and one night after watching it this little ditty started running through my head and so I wrote it down. I wrote it several years ago but it is still one of my favorites.
I meant to submit this long before Christmas but I only just able to find it. After some polishing it it now here. Enjoy.
Be sure to tell me what you think. Reviews are a writers bread and honey. We love the feed back (hint hint) and comments are always welcome.

I like the Little Drummer Boy too. It's my favorite Christmas Classic of the four! It's a very talented piece of poetry! ;)
