I Will Not Talk About Pain This Christmas

i promise you
i will not talk about pain this christmas
i will rest from pain
i will embrace the joys of men and women
i will talk about the birth
of hope for mankind
i will write about saving grace
i will listen to the sounds of peace
i will look at the stars and ponder upon their twinkles
i will not give my tears
i will give so many smiles
i will not close my hands
i will send a lot of roses to all my friends and foes
i will be home early at night
i will pray that God may make things right
i will ask for a longer life
i will wish that there will no more be strife

i promise you all, for this christmas.
