so this is Christmas


(The intriguing tree near the Space Needle--wish my shots of it at night turned out--it's ethereally blue.) 

With the hundreds of seasonal lyrics, these are the ones that keep running through my head (even though I haven't actually heard this song this month) and so I am posting them for this Friday's poetry.


So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun

Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear



And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong

And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

  1. This song... is so trite it moves me to violence. Which means it's a perfect fundraiser-with-old-rockers type of song. We can all sing a chorus of "Feed the World" next, because heaven knows, this time of year is the only time to do for others.

    The service we went to yesterday was about as deep as this, which is why I'm cranky.
