Since the 1950's the poet, Franklin Hamilton, has enclosed a Christmas poem in the yearly family Christmas letter. This is a collection of these poems. There could have been more than fifty poems in this book, but some were lostin the mainstream of daily living. Yet in those remaining, one finds a strong belief in the power of the religious impact of the Christmas birth. The poet oftenuses the symbolic search for the Christmas star, as a guiding force to find thisneed.His hope is that readers may find their gift here also.
