Notes About The Poem

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!

I say it already. 
Ever since the President, 
put the Merry back,
in the step of America. 
Jesus is real…
Christ is Christmas!

Happy thoughts, 
Window trimmings…
Yes Thanksgiving is not over.
I don’t care. 
I am Thankful every day, 
that we are FREE!

I bend my knees, 
and bow my head…
each night, not secretly. 
(where they kill people…)
Openly.

I lift my hands together in prayer, 
for my country, my family, 
and strangers that need 
more than can be given. 

America the beautiful, 
God Bless you this day. 
God Bless you every day 
of the year!
