ToolsA Christmas prayerI won't wish for presents at Christmas this year Not even a cellphone or a Teddy bear But what I would like to see more of this time Is goodwill to all men and kindness sublime.
Not in groceries and malls the rabid mad rushing With towering trolleys chockful of much shopping The glittering glow of ornaments and lights Can only fill our senses with empty delight.
So please spare a thought for the frail and the fragile The poor widow, the orphan, the sick and the servile The indigent who are hungry, the old Let's put something substantial in their empty bowl.
Only then will we feel the true spirit of Christmas When we all put the needy in our thoughts first The turkey and fruit cake will sate our stomachs, but that Can never put love and joy in our hearts. Eva David-Swain Sangre Grande |
