Notes About The Poem

- Christmas Wish -

My candle is lit for hope and the future
                         we need to stop acting as total losers

                      Stronger than the greatest military power
                 decorate the Christmas tree with love and flowers

                      We have all failed our dream of the earth
                     count your blessings ... a new glorious birth

                 Tomorrow breaks a unworn and glorious morning
                       Gilded bells in fluffy threads as adorning


                                         Merry Christmas
