One Christmas Wish

Its still a happy time of year..
Although some gone cause a tear..
I remember Christmas as a child..
Now these Holidays are a bit mild..
The tree still has its array of lights..
And out my window the chill takes a bite..
If I could have one Christmas wish to send..
I would balloon up to heaven in a teardrop 
to be with all you again...


Merry Christmas Dad, Dianna and Al...Miss you

Happy Holidays to you. The poem made me want to see the visions of Christmas, as you remember as a child. And hear the sound of talking and laughter.
