Holiday Childhood Revisited

25 nov 2019 6:21 pm

I am a child once more 
Sitting on the floor

Watching holiday shows of old
Singing along with every song confident loud and bold

Charlie Brown that gloomy clown
Learning of life with his furrowed brow

The muppets and John Denver
All made a childhood to remember

Lights on the tree twinkling 
And tinsel reflecting 

While tiny Tim says God bless us everyone 
So many reminders of days that were fun

Thank God for the memories that I remember
Each year this time in november

They keep my heart young
As a sigh seeps from my lungs

And I wish love for every heart 
And pray God to impart

Peace and good will toward all men
Now and forever always amen
