The Old Man's Christmas Wish

 The Old Man came to me tonight
Said he had a message to share
One he asked me to pass along
At this special time of the year

He said, "The angels are singing
Of the birth we still celebrate
When our Lord came to live on earth
Though we don't know the exact date

"Always look upward to Heaven
Call on the Lord to free your soul
Turn your worries over to Him
The gift He gave never grows old

"Peace with Him in Heaven above
That great gift of eternal life
An end to pain and suffering
An end to all our fear and strife

"May Christmas bring you peace and joy
Celebrate His coming to earth
Trust in Him and share His blessings
Born to die at the moment of birth"

Then like a ghost the Old Man was gone
But the message was very clear
A Merry Christmas wish to all
And of course a blessed New Year

The greatest gift ever given
The greatest sacrifice ever made
It shows just how much He loves us
With His life all our debts were paid

The Ghost of Mavis by Mary Lynn Plaisance

Mavis asked, "Am I a ghost again? I don't remember being a ghost, but I know I was." Do you believe in reincarnation?
