Holiday
Holiday sales and Holiday wear,
Holiday parties and Holiday fare,
Where is the Christ in Christmas;
The Child that should be there?
Everyone should have the right,
To believe or not this Holy night.
All folks must have the right to pray
To their own God in their own way
Or deny them all, I won't naysay.

Indulge me please, don't make a fuss;
Just let me keep my sweet Christmas.

No matter how it's celebrated, it is a good day when family and friends get together to share a giving moment of heart.
Merry Christmas to you!

Joyce, this season is shared in so many ways by so many different people, and the main thing is that the gift of love is ever present in all.  Nice write for the holidays.
