A Time of Goodwill

Holidays will soon be upon us to much applause The world needs a break, old differences pause A time of goodwill During winter's chills Ends too soon, countries again show their claws

Sad but true! But difficult to comprehend for us "normal" people!

While countries knead their claws//Taking a brief and precarious pause//He'll come back!//OUR OWN SANTA JACK//Our very own Santa Claus. GOOD MORNING JACKSON!!! My wish list is in the mail and I've been VERY good!!! (I heard Santa has been naughty;-)

Ah, I hate to think what the evils of terrorism will bring upon the holidays...they are supposed to be of peace and joy with the happiness of the season before us! I am looking forward to the holidays, but the cost of them sometimes is great! I hope my poor back can handle it this year! I have to take it easy and hope that my wife can help a lot! She has been a blessing all throughout this turmoil I've been through! What a remarkable poem your have written my friend! Great Work!!
