A Wish For Christmas

This Christmas I don’t want a thing Not a single present under the Christmas Tree There’s just one thing I want More then anything in the world The one thing I wish for with all my heart Is for a normal Christmas next year. Christmas Parades marching down every street Carolers singing to their hearts’ content Kids sitting on Santa’s lap then standing behind a screen Lovers sharing a kiss under the mistletoe. Families being reunited After a year of separation From the Covid Blizzard That stole their holiday memories of 2020. Exchanging gifts with one another Giving ribbon hugs to our loved ones Without the fear of turning to ice Of the Covid Frost, but has melted away. Exploring the Christkindlmarket A warm cup of hot cocoa in hand Checking the shops of all the knick knacks Of the artistic crafts and ornaments And Bon Bons from the Sweet Stand. There would be Christmas Parties Across the entire nation From Charles Dickens To Ugly Sweaters Go nuts by throwing Halloween in the mix To make Tim Burton grin. That’s all I want for Christmas, Santa My wish is for 2021 be the year Where we get our version of Christmas Back to where it’s supposed to be.
