I Protect

They're cute, they're smiley,
They're shy and they're onry,
No matter how they are,
My life will always revolve,
Around these special children.

They can run around and play,
Running and jumping,
Filling the world with so much surprise,
Every day I WILL RISE,
To each of their defenses.

Never can the world hurt,
Never will it take away their hearts,
Letting them grow as children,
Leaving them their innocence,
That is what I protect.

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!
