Christmas Day

Christmas Day


        On
	  Christmas
 	   Day

 	   our whole
 	 family
 	arrives.

 	We
 	   share love,
 	     open gifts,

 	    sit at table
 	  for dinner,
 	hold hands,
	 pray,

	  give thanks
	     for one more,
 	       Christmas

                   we
 	     jointly
 	  shared.
