Image result for pictures of people sitting on a park bench in the christmas season

I sit here with the company of my reindeer Trying to think of how to bring holiday cheer But mainly I ponder, the hate all around No gift can change this in the silence of sound I am known to bring happiness and joy I am a symbol of giving children a toy But, how do I make the difference in need Of attention, in this world filled with greed? I sit here in peace that I hope people will find Before I take my ride to leave things behind But, my hope is that all will change next year When I return for my visit with my reindeer So, I sit on this bench making wishes now Hoping the gift of love will spread somehow Heidi Sands PHOTO # 3 12/10/18 Placed 1st in The park bench at Christmas contest.

Thanks for your very emotive and expressive winning work entered in my contest. If each of us would do something for one person this Christmas it could make a difference in at least a few. Congrats on your win. Sara
