THE CHRISTMAS CD

 
 
 
It's only early November
but Michael's Christmas CD is here.
I simply can't wait to play it
until the Christmas season draws near.
 
So I placed it in my CD player
and as it started to play
it put me in a holiday mood
and these thoughts I want to relay
 
Have yourself a merry little Christmas.
Sing Ave Maria and O Holy Night.
Celebrate and rejoice in the season,
the season of wonder and delight.
 
You may be driving home for Christmas
from a distance far or near
across the miles, over mountain and river
returning home to those you hold dear.
 
Today when a child is born
it's a miracle like long ago
when Mary gave birth to Jesus
so peace and comfort we may know
 
As long as there's Christmas
they'll be hope for love and peace.
So light a candle and say a prayer
that anger and hate will someday cease.
 
So everyone gather together
eat cookies and tell a winter's tale
and don't forget all your friends
you've met through your MBFC e-mail.
 
On a silent night I say my thanks
for my online friends who have brought me cheer
and to you all I wish good health, great joy
and a Michael filled Happy New Year.
