Christmas Every Day!

Why can’t it be Christmas every day
          With lights that cheer and cards that say
I love you and I hold you dear
              Why can’t it be Christmas all the year  

Each night could be a Silent Night
                       In quiet peace, no guns in sight
Where Egg Nog pours and ribbons flow
                And each kiss steals ‘neath Mistletoe

Oh yes, and all may share the gift
                     As hunger ceases, sure and swift 
And every Carol’s song of love
                            Is grateful to the star above

Why can’t it be Christmas every day
                       Perhaps that is too much to say
At least in thought that’s how it starts
                   Let’s carry Christmas in our hearts

I like the ending very, very much. Can't gain everything at once. With sweat and tears, we hold things more dear. Season's best, Mike. ~ gw
