Holidays Are

HOLIDAYS ARE... Times when families get together, it can be in Spring, Summer, Fall, or Winter weather. HOLIDAYS ARE... Days filled with relaxation and rest, and all the feasting that is only the best. HOLIDAYS ARE... Days for the enjoyment, of not having to go to our employment. HOLIDAYS ARE... A gift for children for as a rule, it's a day when they don't get up for school. HOLIDAYS ARE... A time of laughter heard in the trees, or the aroma of barbecue wafting on the breeze. HOLIDAYS ARE... Memories of those no longer here, and all the times they brought us cheer. HOLIDAYS ARE... When some are thrilled by colorful presents, but are a better gift because of our family's presence. HOLIDAYS ARE... The year's gifts of giving, for us taking part in our daily living. HOLIDAYS ARE... Nearly upon us again, and they bring us a tear too, because we love you and wish we could share them with you. HOLIDAYS ARE... Truly, a present from God above, presented through His Son, bestowing on us His gracious love.

Oh, I see I did come back here after being sick. I must have thought it was the first one - I must have got confused! My bad.

Thanks, again, CayCay. I'm glad that you enjoyed it and hope it will brighten some of your holidays. One question, I thought you wanted to read my musical history, but you didn't say anything about MUSICALS II. ????

Thanks, Robert. I have had the good fortune to have a wife who pushes me sometimes. This time, she wanted a poem to put in with the Christmas cards and this was the result. Thanks for the read and comments.
