Holiday Reflections

Thanksgiving comes but once a year
It’s a time when families gather near
To reflect and give thanks for those we hold dear
We celebrate Christmas with parties and food
Spend time with family and everyone’s in a good mood
Soon it’s all over and decorations are put away
And then we do it all again for the next holiday
Look forward to the New Year and keep hope alive
That our country brings our troops home
So no one else dies
Have faith things will get better,
Pray to God above
That He will bless us and keep us
In His everlasting love
Our country’s in turmoil and it gives me a chill
We’ll see better times soon…..I know we will
Try not to let worry get you down
Smile, keep your chin up,
And laugh out loud
We’ll certainly survive hard times once more
Because we have great strength and resolve
We didn’t know we had before
Take one day at a time, and treasure each day
We need to work together because that’s the best way
Don’t let hate determine how you act
Instead open up your heart and don’t attack
Make sure our country is the best it can be
Let’s all work together….you and me!
Please end the hatred towards our fellow man
We’ll all feel better if we’re holding hands!
