Christmas Wish

"Nothing is better..."

By MaryEllen JaubertPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Nothing is better

Than being with friends

Or getting together

To celebrate

Everything and nothing

At the same time

Every year

there comes a time

When everyone decides

To forget about their troubles

To forgive any recent shortcomings

To just be together and have a good time

To open their eyes and see

That there’s more to life

Than misery

Some may say they apply this time

To be a part of their religion

But really and truly they just want

To be themselves

And have a good time

So while we sit here

Together

Sipping our hot chocolate

Eating our favorite family meals

Opening presents

Observing each passing smile

Listening to the joyful laughter

Cracking voices as we sing carols

Pigging out on cookies and cake

Sneaking a few pieces from the tiny candy home

Bribing your siblings not to tell

And most importantly counting the cash you received

Just remember that no matter what you’re facing

Or what wrong has been done in your life

Whether by you or someone else

There will always be good times ahead

And there will always be something you can look forward to

No matter what

Merry Christmas
