Christmas Rush 

Christmas is a joyous time of year
It is filled with happiness and good cheer.
Rushing to and fro,
Always on the go.

Shopping lists seem to grow as days go by,
In the middle of the night you think of something,
You forgot to get.
For some uncle or cousin you have never met.

But while you are running everywhere
For this and that
Do you have the time to stop and care,
To sit with your child and have a chat.

Can you see the ones that have less than you
Or does your personal errands obstruct your view.
STOP! Take time to listen and look around.
Many opportunities to share can be found.

Christmas is a wonderful time of the year.
It is for everyone and everything we hold dear.
For all of us there is no doubt,
What Christmas really is about!
