If I would but only think upon
The good I have around me
The ones I come in contact with
Will then a smile upon my face see

It is said there takes less energy
Upon my face a smile to wear
I know it helps the ones around
When without a tear I share

This is the season to be jolly
So I want to think of joyful things
The sweet memories of Christmas past
As well as what joy our future brings

To think upon your sweet love
You tenderly bestow upon me
Or of your heart to me you gave
When you and I became we

To not forget to think upon
Of what is the real and true reason
Of why we share and celebrate
This wonderfully glorious season

Thank you, Nancy. I tend to get selfish sometimes
and think of me too much. That's when I get downheartened.
Hugs,
Ethel

(smiles) Awwwwwww, you have always glowed to us as the complete opposite of selfishness, dearest friend, for you are a most loving, caring person who is inclusive and feeling to all, yay! (angel friendship hugs) You've always been one poet that I think of least selfish and most generous in spirit, yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Hi Ethel!

and I don't buy the selfish thing, there isn't a selfish bone in your body.

Have a happy holidays!

Noah, Chris, Iliana, James and Susan...
thank you all for reading and for your replies.
I hope that we all think of the good things
this year. God knows, there is enough sadness
in this world to last a lifetime!! I pray that
we all can feel some happiness in our hearts on
this season of the birth of Jesus.
Hugs to you all,
Ethel
