Tis Christmas

thru the land

of forgiveness

and love 

We should travel

---

Grudges should stay

with the Grinch

---

If not forever

at least for today

---

Hold your friends

and family

near

Know that they

are ever so 

dear

---

Let go of anger

and resentment

Enter the world

of contentment

---

If not forever

at least for today

---

Merry Christmas all...

Positive and pleasing. The ideal is not always obtainable
but maybe we should try to aspire to it when possible.
