Christmas and Children Together Are Golden

There's no better time to plan
Christmas time than hand in hand
With the innocence of children
In their hearts they will be holding
Magic of this special time
Teaching us it's such a crime
To lose all this joy and cheer
As we grow from year to year
Just look in their little faces
Lighting up with all the traces
Of happiness they will feel
That no one can ever steal
In days of exuberance
Wide eyed with the wonderment
Of this holiday that brings
Presents, snowmen, tunes to sing
Santa slides down chimneys
With dollhouses, trucks and more
Packages across the floor
For kids sleeping in the night 
Waking to the morning light
Tearing open bags with bows
Smiles on their faces shows
Adults how we used to be
When everything was Christmasy
