A Christmas Wish From Mark and Nancy Worden

Our Christmas Wish

A time of year for joy and giving,
For festive parties, mistletoe,
for poems expressing thankfulness,
Read by a fireplace's glow.

For coziness and snuggling,
While winter's snowflakes fall,
And warm mugs filled with spicy wine,
By Christmas trees so tall.

For those of faith, reflection time,
With hymns sung with conviction,
Of thoughts of goodness towards all men,
The blessed benediction.

Each Christmas day that comes to pass,
Is respite from one's strife,
With childhood memmories envisioned,
So long ago, a simpler life.

A Merry Christmas from our hearts,
Another in a happy year,
Best wishes from us all, and joy,
To those you hold so dear.
