Merry Christmas is today,
to celebrate in many ways.
Gathered round the trees that stand,
in homes, in hearts throughout the land.
Drinking eggnog, singing songs,
joy and cheer the whole day long.
Lounging by a fire is nice,
cookies, a movie, naps once or twice.
But it's more than presents, getting things
as holiday bells begin to ring,
say prayers for those who are in need
t’is the season to do a good deed,
let go of pent up stress and strife
and give thanks, be grateful
for the wonders of life.

I send today a holiday wish
for all you hope for, desire or miss
and take a moment just to say
peace on Earth this Christmas day.

May peace, joy, and a grateful heart be yours this holiday season and throughout the New Year to come.
