A Silver Christmas Wish

And from a silvered point of view
                     A merry day has changed
I guess that is the way is
                  When much has rearranged

No more the wrapping, hiding gifts
                  That beg a Christmas cheer
Yet rather praying those we love
                     We wake to find still here

And from a silvered point of view
                               A Santa in disguise
Is found not hiding on the roof
                       But found in loving eyes

Yet nothing wrong there is with fun
                              A tinsel perfect day
To cherish every kind of gift
                     With love to lead the way

Lin Lane Date: 12/21/2023 5:11:00 AM Nice that you kept the silver theme going with the mention of tinsel. I loved trimming the tree with it when I was little. I wonder if it can even be found now. Google! I did and yes… it’s still sold. Login to Reply Mike Gentile Date: 12/21/2023 5:20:00 AM Aw yes, I remember it well, Merry Christmas xxoo
