The Holidays!

Through the holidays it was clear,
My love was always near.
Family and friends unite,
Bringing JOY through the night!
Our voices heard throughout,
Laughter and stories renowned.
A time to keep close to our hearts,
Memories cherished, never part.
Grateful for this to be here,
For all of us, to be able to share!

Holiday Knowledge

The holidays used to be filled,
With monotinous dread and fear,
Never knowing but always expecting,
Someone or something,
To come steal the joy away...
Then my world changed,
Being joyous, being happy!
Realization that those who love,
Will do all in their power,
To share that all around!
Stopping and protecting,
Making the unbearable,
The ghost of Christmas Past...
Bringing kind actions and words,
The aura of Christmas Future!
Never will I forget the great memories,
Family and Friends have given me,
That have carried me so far!

No matter what the holidays have in store,
Remember there may be those,
Choosing to make it hard,
Yet there's always ONE to share,
The LOVE and JOY they possess,
Bringing it forth just for YOU!

Embracing

Friends are forever valued,
Friendships don't always last,
Learning is an asset.
Everyday you learn new,
Be it from friend or foe,
Your memories will be there,
To call upon in times of sorrow.
Time can drift you apart,
Love will keep you together.
Miles away or souls spirited far,
Friends will always stay near the heart.
Back you in trouble,
Support when frail,
Laughter when your scared.
Our lives are a twist of fate,
Something stronger bonds.
If not for friends,
No matter if for eternity,
Our minds wouldn't deal.
Take this time,
To remember precious moments,
Long gone,
To help you where you are today.
Moments can come in any form,
Stressed or delightful,
Keep your head up,
Embrace every stranger as a moment changed.
