A Christmas Wish, a poem by Audrey Austin


A CHRISTMAS WISH
a poem by Audrey Austin

A time of love, a time for sharing

Let’s find new ways to light the path

While old traditions tried and true

Express how much we’re caring

For our family,

For our friends,

For people ‘round our hungry world.
 

A time of peace, a time for laughter

Let’s find new ways to share the love

While old relationships hold fast

We’ll open hearts, extend our reach

To neighbours near,

To friends afar, 

To those with whom we’ve yet to meet.
 

A time of joy, a time to remember

The holy birth of the blessed child

Who gave us the reason

To celebrate this season

A season of love, of caring, of sharing,

Love brightens the path of all who journey

Transforms the lives of all who are weary. 

Hold the light, share the light, be the light.
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!  I wish you peace, health, prosperity,
and the joy of poetry shared.
