Poem Artwork

Having ourselves a merry little Christmas
Pocket book is light
Cutting back, economy's made things tight

Having ourselves a merry little Christmas
Better than none at all
(Better than fighting shoppers at the Mall)

Here we are, just the two of us, we are blessed by God above
As we remember His presents to us, of joy, peace and love

Faithful friends, who are dear to us, let us take time to convey
How much you mean to us, we love you, so we take time to say

May God bless you, have a Merry Christmas now
May God bless you, have a Merry Christmas now

(c) 2008, Karla Dorman (12/24)

very nice Karla, I guess we have to remember that Jesus was born in a barn, rich people probably don't understand this, sometimes it's hard to figure, have a great holiday

The only ones without light pockets this year are the CEO's of these big businesses that stole what little we had....and of course those big politicians that got greased palms and fat pockets along the way...and of course the list goes on....but...hey... at least being in the "lighter pocket club" is easier to belong to...and we are a fine bunch!!!! Hugs and the happiest of Christmases always... lindalaw

The simple pleasures of life: I prefer a quiet Christmas to a busy one, but maybe this year busy is good! Sad times for us; busy doesn't give us time to think of our daddy. Doesn't feel the same without him!

Beautiful write, and I love the piccy: reminds me of the big wreath daddy put by the garage: as soon as you turned onto our street, you could see it; it was like, "HELLO!" LOL

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :(

Karla,

Beautiful sentiments, perhaps our pockets our lighter, but so are our hearts, so it evens out. Merry Christmas.
