Festive Season

The festive season, festive cheer
Party Party Party!
Feast Feast Feast!
Most importantly though, spend some time with those most dear

Make some light in the growing dark
   Some warmth to your home
Reflect back on the year that's passed
   To see how much we've grown

Holiday time is one of excess but it has value
Would you care for a drink?
A second helping for me
Take some chocolate from the tree
It has been so long since I have seen you.  A heartfelt hug just on cue

A celebration of our daily gifts
   Family, food, friends, and song
We celebrate and depend on each
   As winter comes along

The festive season, light up the dark!
   With light from the heart
   With pure compassion's spark
Of this race and time we are all part

So lets join our hearts together
   To get us through the nasty weather
We head into the night singing and cheering
   Know that winter in leering
We know it will be long cold and tough
   Cold dark nights are a firm rebuff
With friends make it merry
   Share this burden we carry
To make the light shine in our hearts
   Let that light fill the dark
For times will always come
   When lives are less than fun
The worst of storms must also pass
   These lessons learned from the past
Festive season
Help us remind
Its not so bad this whole mankind

We party
Feast
Drink
Cheer
As we bring a light to the new year!

    I love poetry.

    It can be whimsical or epic, unbearably long or just two memorable lines, mature and dark or light and childish.
