My Christmas Wish To All Of You

Just a few days more to go
most of the shopping is done
time to rest and breath a sigh
as I watch the falling snow

I sit down and start to read
writings that sooth tired souls
from the pens of each of you
words from those both far and near

I think about this season
with the joy and peace you give
as you share your hearts with me
giving life love and reason

The magic you bring to all
as words dance across the page
bringing tears and smiles to hearts
when you answer your gifts call

I would weave a dream with you
where like hearts meet to share love
as we come from all around
embracing with joy would do

Sleighs with Christmas bells ringing
A starlit sky I would give
as love and laughter sharing
our voices raised in singing

Yet I need not this dream weave
for each day you share with me
all the love within your hearts
filling hearts with words you leave

The light you give us each day
flows with love into our hearts
giving strength and courage dear
helping in a special way

You see each one I hold dear
you bless, you love and you give
to all around magic words
Bringing Christmas all the Year

To me this is truth of love
given from your loving hearts
as you share with all of us
your gift given from above

And a Merry Christmas to you Karen. This was a beautiful Christmas wish and filled with the love that you offer so unselfishly daily. I hope that you holidays find you surrounded in love and smiles to keep you warm.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.

This is a beautiful Christmas gift to all of us at Passions. The people here mean so much to me, too. You describe it all so beautifully. Thanks for posting.

May your christmas be all that you desire...

I love the time

the calm inside me
in the space
where I can breathe...
