Christmas Cheer

​

People don’t know candy canes are
shaped in J. for Baby Jesus’ birthday
Snowmen and snow angels are the
personification and epitome of cool
Christmas is every day when you’re
loved and wanted and you reciprocate
Sing and rejoice, smile and laugh
spread happiness and kindness
Make peace, never war, why not
turn a leaf drop into an eternity.
