The Magic of Christmas The night before Christmas When all through the house Was silent Even all the dead mouse I lay there so quiet Inside the stove My face contorted White as snow The Christmas lights outside Shining bright On guard and not letting any one in They may after all see the fright I am sure my feet twitched in the air A final dance of sorts Please let no one despair The magic of Christmas filled my soul I realized I had no where else at all to go Oh Holy Night https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZ-8jYpa1-o

It is us who should thank you, its a dark difficult topic, and hard to admit, but its there, by discussing it, even making light of it, letting people know, its a wee bit of help I hope. Cheers
