A CHRISTMAS PRAYER

Dear Christmas Spirit,
Come and enter me
So that I can see
The joys you bring
To a young boy's eyes
The sparkling surprise
Of gifts and love
From up above
The star in the sky
That guides the Magi
Bring it back to me
The old reality
Before the grownup game
Brought me pain
And took my fantasy
Away from me
For sometimes old myths
Are the greatest gifts
I seek them again
Like a long lost friend
My childish joys
Will stop the noise
Of serious things
And the sadness they bring
So come back again
My Christmas friend
So that I can see
With childlike glee.
Amen.
