Christmas Magic

We’re supposed to get a huge snow storm here over the next few hours. I was hoping to find a second to write a Christmas wish to my readers, but I am not sure I will be able to. I found this poem and thought it was worth a share, just in case I don’t get the chance to write something more personal.

Christmas Magic

Are we too grownup to feel a thrill
As we light the Christmas tree?
Are we immune to cookies,
Christmas cards and Christmas glee?

Are we too adult to “Ooh” and “Aah”
At the Christmas candle’s glow?
Are we blasé about our gifts;
Do we shun the mistletoe?

Are we too mature for carols,
For merry or for jolly?
Do the decorations leave us cold,
The ornaments and holly?

Fat chance! We’ll never grow too old
To love the Christmas magic.
A year without a Christmas
Would be boring, even tragic.

So bring it on! The candy canes,
The feasting and good cheer;
O Christmas, lovely Christmas,
You’re the highlight of the year!

Merry Christmas to you and yours!!!
