This Christmas I Hope

Poem by Esther-Marie Tidoso This Christmas I Hope… … for more peace A little release From all that’s happening … for more reevaluation Of our inner situation For what is your heart beating? … for more smiles Despite the trials Are you still living? … for a Christmas miracle The holidays to be bearable We keep on praying … the reality checks remind us to keep ourselves in check Let’s all be grateful … we focus not on our limitations But be thankful for this mission That is forgiveness, love and giving … you hang up the star on the tree so high Ornaments so beautiful, you sigh Precious memories, decorating ...the lights to shine brighter And our arms spread wider Jesus is born, let’s greet Him … ‘tis season to be joyful ‘Tis season to be peaceful Protected, loved and blessed. ©Olena Sergienko
