Picture by Josephine Wall

* * *

I have one wish this Christmas
For a world of peace and love
I would like to send my message
Upon the wings of a white dove

I will embrace my fellow man
No matter what his race
I will make each child happy
Bringing a smile to every face

I will be the bearer of a gift
With something special to impart
My gift of love is bountiful
It comes freely from my heart

No more poverty and hatred
For I will change greys skies to blue
It is my quest to make a difference
As I spread the word to you

So let us build a bridge
That stretches far across the world
Open up your hearts
And let love be unfurled

* * *

"The source of love is deep in us
and we can help others
realise a lot of happiness.
One word, one action,
one thought, can reduce
another person's suffering
and bring that person joy"

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
- Shawn Mullins

Lovely! and a very lovely wish, indeed!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Incredible words.
If only everyone could here them.

A Good Christmas to yourself and family.
Let us hope the next year is better.

I wish for the sky to shine a sun
I dont wish it to show anything else
I wish for honesty amongst people
I wish for trust
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish

I wish for the sky to shine a sun
I dont wish it to shine anything else
I wish that we do not destroy others
I wish that we be allowed dignity
I wish that we can govern ourselves
I wish for honesty amongst people
I wish for trust
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
