My Present

I have every reason
To put in words a season
Bearing good will, love and joy for one and all
 
So I present to you this present
No, it isn’t duck or pheasant –
Nor a shopping spree at some local, jam-packed mall
 
See, my wish for you today
Will never fade away
It shines like sparkling diamonds in a brilliant, crystal hall
 
May you be present in every moment
May you have no fear or foment
And may you always rise in triumph when you fall
 
May every moment of your present
Be generous, kind and pleasant
Filled with peace, on earth, right now, for one and all
