Christmas Time

Welcome
 to the wonder and the magic of the reason
 that Christmas time brings to the season,
the decoration on the tree, the marvels, and miracles
 the lights, the glow of simplicity of carols lyrical,
 the ornaments, the garlands and the wreaths,
steals away the pushed aside discounted beliefs
 that God is and blesses us
 with the amazement of a child's trust;
at this time of year
 there is joy among the tears
 a reckoning of sorts
despite the bad news in ill reports;
 it is a time unmatched
when even ill-tempered rivalries are patched
 finding deep within our hearts we are all the same
 seeking peace and love, honesty and truth regained;
so put aside those foolish discrepancies
 together we can conquer everything and finally see
 rising to greet the very person we were always meant to be.
