Chasing Sunshine

Could we go back to
The beginning, when I was,
One with the merry?

The night in the song,
Silent, holy, calm and bright,
Wasn’t full of frenzy.

Leave alone the lights,
Baubles, and decorations,
Breathe in, and just be.

Where does this love grow?
In hearts that yearn to share joy,
E’en a potato.

What is the reason
For the season, do you ask?
It’s got to be love.

There is wonder here,
Plentifully – for children,
Hold space for belief.

The child who got all
Their wishes for Christmas, prayed,
That it would last long.

Who stole the cookie,
From the cookie jar? Was it,
Santa or his elves?
