At this time of year when all the Christmas cards arrive ,

I think how lucky that I am just to be alive .

With my family and friends to share a word or two ,

peace and joy at this time of year and may God bless you .



At this time of year I think how beautiful it is ,

when Christmas comes around and the message that is his .

Silent nights reflection brings that image very clear ,

then I pause to say I love you at this time of year .



At this time of year there is something we need to learn ,

to love with all our heart and to be loved in return .

Love is the answer and its good to know you are here .

I love you but most specially at this time of year.



At this time of year I ask for nothing more than you ,

for love makes the tinsel shine , its in your eyes , its true .

Christmas time is the laughter of children in our ear ,

Happy Christmas , from yours truly at this time of year .
