Be As Children

be as children smile light your face with Christmas be a child again if just for this season. kiss the morning star and wish it well turn your reddened cheeks into winters folly throw a snowball, build a fort. drink hot chocolate laced with marshmallows feel it warm all the way down close your eyes and remember snow angels on the lawn.
