When I think of Christmas,
I think of all the lights
and all the caroling choirs
Who help to make it bright.
Paints a picture of love
and beauty all around.
It’s in the Christmas season
where my happiness is found.
Time to decorate the tree;
Garland and ornaments;
A tune of merry joy
that tells the heart, “it’s Christmas.”
Hot apple cider in the mug
and candy canes a treat.
Love when family gathers around
to enjoy the holiday eats.
I love the decorations all around,
the Windows at Macys Herald Square
and the Radio City Spectacular;
you know Santa Claus is there.
’tis the season to be jolly
and show benevolence to others.
Time to see the yuletide log
that adds a warmth like summer.
Perhaps you like to lay in the snow
Having fun making snow angels
or maybe you are one of those
lead to church by sounding bells.
It’s just possible you might love
Seeing stockings hung by the fireside
Or maybe you like to gather around the tree
And stream popcorn on the pine.
While joining together Christmas caroling
I always have a blast jingling all the way
And wrapping gifts to put under the tree
To the lyrics of his one horse open sleigh.
I love to see the lights, so bright
and the panorama of colorful decorations.
Maybe you are one who likes to dance
in the spirit of the Johncunu celebration.
You could be one who looks forward to
sending a gift to someone less fortunate.
Or maybe it is not about the gifts at all
but the joy of being around family and friends.
Regardless of what it means to you
Or how you choose to celebrate
May the joys of Christmas
Be served well done on your plate.
And may this year you find wrapped in cellophane
All your prayers answered and blessings of faith.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
When we celebrate the birth of King Jesus;
That joy and peace might be in your day.
Merry Christmas.
