And So This Is Christmas

As John Lennon wrote, “So this is Christmas,
Another year over” and so I may add or say,
A new one taking over, I hope a better one.

And so this is Christmas, the year is almost
over and what have you achieved and done?
I hope good and memorable feats, deeds.

So my friends, new and old ones, you crossed
my path, came to my colorful, meaningful life
and became part of it and my endearing families,

In my life, each of you has meaning and I love you all,
have a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New
Year and may the coming year be fruitful, high yielding.

So do I. I don't know if it is even a possibility. There is a Pfizer pills now that could eliminate severity and hospitalization if administered as soon as knowing "positive". That would be a tremendous help. Merry Christmas, Darlene. Blessings to you. Hugs, Marilene

If the current rush to hospital is any indication of 2022, we shall certainly cherish your good wishes!

I hope the hospitalization this year would not surpass 2020 and that the new pills would cut down of the severity of the new ones, if taken at the early stage. Just not sure if it is being administered already. Have a very Merry Christmas, Rico. Blessings to you, Marilene
