Merry Christmas

M aking merry with family and friends,
E njoying the greetings and cards people send.
R eveling in the festive decor,
R ejoicing in our Savior's birth once more,
Y early reminder of what Christmas is for.

C arolers sing their carols so dear,
H earing your favorites brings gladness and cheer.
R elishing cookies frosted and sweet,
I ndulging in fudge and all holiday treats.
S anta may show up at a party for a bit,
T hrilling the children with a small simple gift.
M istletoe hangs in a variety of places,
A llowing quick kisses and blushes on faces.
S avoring each moment, as the time races.
