Merry Christmas to All My Friends at Prose - Celebrating My 1000th Write on Prose!

Let this Christmas Day

and this holiday season

embrace our time together

singing the songs of angels.

May the joy you bestow

to others come back

to you on winged feet.

Let the peace in your hearts

waft into still air as you

cocoon yourself in

warm magic blanket

of Christmas morn.

Absorb childhood fantasies

and pleasures of youth.

May you wave a wand

and transform your existence

into one that is softer and brighter.

May your skies be so high

that you lose sight

of your troubles.

Embrace the genial flickers

of heartfelt charity.

Know that every sunrise

brings a new day.

Glance upward

at gliding clouds

and diamond stars.

May the feelings

of Christmas

live forever within

your heart, filled

with good tidings.

Beware of office

Christmas parties

so you won’t have to

look for a new job!

(I threw that in to see

if you were listening!)

and may you be heir

to peace and goodwill

and a happy New Year.
