The Sound of All Good Things

(to the tune of "Joy To The World")

For "A Christmas Carol Contest"
12/17/21

And here's the thing,
Set aside your bling.
Make life the worth of it all.
And tell it to the nunnery,
And tell it to the funnery,
That love is overjoyed,
That love is overjoyed,
That love is all there is.

Bring here the news,
In life we choose
Love, or lack thereof,
And I know them both
With both I've been betrothed.
Forever entwined as two,
Forever entwined as two,
Follow not as I say,
Rather as I do.

I breathe the word,
Like a big, heavy bird.
Too fat to flap my wings,
Too fat to flap my wings,
Resound the sound
Of all good things.
