A Handful of Heaven

Christmas is just like a handful of Heaven When love is the meaning and reason to be Where peace is united and happiness rules And beauty awakens like lights on a tree Tinsel and Garland are angels in waiting They make what is lovely just only moreso And presents are simply a happy reminder The gift of forever with all that we know Christmas is just like a handful of Heaven A taste of the joyous all wrapped up in fun Time to remember that love will abide us From Christmases past to when we are one
