My annual Christmas dinner means so much to me. It's one of the only times during the year when I can get together with my loved ones, enjoy great food, reminisce about old times and share our hopes for the future. Read this heartwarming poem so you can feel the Christmas spirit too:
The work of someone very able, In the middle of the room sits A beautifully-laid out table
|
Its warmth makes it so inviting Who thought a grand reunion Could be this exciting?
|
A get-together is at hand To mark an ancient birth In a faraway land
|
Time for some holiday cheer Reminiscing and sharing With your loved ones near
|
Glorious food to whet the appetite All the guests Eagerly await their first bite
|
There’s talk of the year gone by Some points were low Many others high
|
New Year will be better than last Time to look back And make peace with our past
|
Now please take your seat And may it not be so long ‘til we once again meet.
