Today we visit family
and open our presents wide.
And though I can’t be with you this eve,
I can still give you a present.
My love to see you through the days
and my thoughts to preserve you as you are right now
for eternity in my mind.

Christmas is a time for friends,
And you are the truest of them all.
May this day of love bring you cheer
and the tapping sound of reindeer
as they land upon your roof
with Santa Claus in tow.

And though some of you don’t believe in him
he is there just the same.
In the hearts of all of you
bringing out your Winter cheer.

Christmas isn’t about religion,
it is for friends and family,
love and joy
and the prospect of a New Year.

So the deck the halls,
my beloved friends,
and I’ll see you
on New Years Eve,
in spirit or person,
it matters not,
for we shall be together
for eternity and beyond.
