The Best Gift
Oh happy day.
Children out at play.
Enjoying the winter weather.
What a joy.
Girl and boy…
Holding hands together.
Both are caring.
Both are sharing,
Wearing each other’s sweater.
A simpler time.
Two of a kind.
Things couldn’t get any better.
No demands implied.
They laughed and they cried
And they’ll be friends forever.
End
Here’s Hoping
Here’s hoping your savings weren’t all in the market.
Here’s hoping you have a car and a place to park it.
Here’s hoping everyone’s been happy and healthy.
Here’s hoping fortune smiles and you all get wealthy.
Here’s hoping the new year will bring war’s end.
Here’s hoping politicians learn better ways to spend.
Here’s hoping the oceans will be cleansed of pollution.
Here’s hoping they find global warming’s solution.
Here’s hoping everyone can find a good a job.
Here’s hoping your pigeons all turn into squab.
Here’s hoping gas prices finally go down.
Here’s hoping your face never wears a frown.
Here’s hoping, if there’s a miracle, that you’re a witness.
Here’s hoping you have… a very merry Christmas.
