(Written Christmas Day)

Though times they change and we move on in life,

We cannot say at Christmas, we’re not blessed.

Food to eat, fine company, we confess —

To much chocolate, many sweets, little strife;

Compared to the state of many a place ripe,

With destruction, death, such hate which festers.

To much is wrong, but be at peace nonetheless.

His time draws near, have cheer; lasting hurt wiped.

—

Peace on earth, goodwill to all mankind, let’s —

Be kind to our neighbours and remember to share,

Life is tough, let no one be in despair.

Let us share the good news, for He is born set —

Healing broken hearts and pains of the past bled,

Great physician who taught, love each other, care.
