MY CHRISTMAS WISH
When gladly ring the Christmas chimes,
Then come our reminiscent times
And even cold hearts—slow to beat—
Feel something of the love thought heat
That emanates from one and all
And to our far off loved ones call.
Then YOU must feel all through and through
The tingling of my thoughts of you.
These are my messengers so true
Who bear this message, "I love you,
And wish you on this Christmas day
A joyful heart that comes to stay,
Not only for a day or two,
But for your whole life's journey through."
