I am going to be busy moving into a studio apartment over the next few weeks. Won’t have help with the heavy stuff until after the first of the year, so this may be a little early.
For my “family” at Ten Cats and particularly Graham:
To You At Christmas
If I could do whate’er I want to doTo make complete your gladsome Christmas Day,I would not bring a single thing to you,But I would come and take some things away.
I would take away all trouble from your heart,Each pain and sorrow I would have relieved;And every word that caused a single smart,And every hour through which you sadly grieved.
I’d have them all begone – forever gone – Forgotten like the things that cannot be;And then each hour would be a joyful one,For only good things would be left, you see.
Now THAT is what I’d really like to do,If I could do the things I wish for you.
