A Few Christmas Ideas

I have nothing to fear 
Santa Claus is here 
And I have not even had a beer 

Inside that artistic rendered suit 
There is a message there that should never be mute 
It is a statement of faith 
And that is great 

When things get tough 
And one may feel they have had enough 
One needs power from the inside stuff 

Santa does exist 
Inside us already to assist 
Making us feel included and not being missed

Santa leaves gifts which gives children a lift
But as they learn there is a concern that the jolly old elf may not return 
His magic will disappear is the educators fear 
That is why we must always understand Santa Claus is a lesson in faith 
And will repel anger and hate. 
I guess one never has the thought 
Since they never have been caught 
That Santa and Jesus are the same 
In this crazy life game 
They both give 
While we are honored to live 

Both are very much for real 
Knowing they are there when we need to heal 
Just because you do not see something it does not mean its not there 
It is only your inner self facing one of life’s scare 
On this holiest night 
When we forget the word fight 
Allow faith to step in 
Letting peace and love take the win.
