Merry Christmas

Wishing you a MERRY CHRISTMAS from afar,
and praying nightly upon our star.

Wishing to you a Happy New Year,
hoping that soon you will be here.

Missing you dearly while you are away,
wishing you were home,can't wait till that day.

Missing the warm smile upon your face,
waiting to again feel your warm embrace.

You have made a change to make your life good,
we all had faith and knew that you could.

Hold your head high and always stay strong,
You will be home with us soon,it won't  be long.



              Keep praying on our star,
                you will be home soon.

                                                LOVE MOM!

Didn't I just send a Christmas Greeting to you? My goodness how quickly that time flew. So many Christmas's from the past makes one wonder if next Christmas will be their last. That's why life is such a precious gift that goes by too fast. Merry Christmas Again Colleen. Best Wishes Always, Bill

Colleen, this is a really nice one. You could divide this into the two lines that rhyme(you know leave a space between each two lines) then it would also be a couplet. Thanks for the comments on my work. Have a great week-end. Sara
