Christmas Present

please accept this simple rhyme
it only cost a little time
to find the words I want to say
to wish you well on Christmas Day
that you will feel the sacred joy
that still excites a little boy
that troubles leave you, with the wind
that you believe in love again...

there's many paths we never travel
mysteries we can't unravel
times we sit and rack our brains
to find some reason for the pain
lessons gathered from the sorrow
gives us faith to face tomorrow
when we will find a brighter day
just trust your heart to lead the way...

I know the wise men numbered three
I never claimed that one was me
but I've seen treasure in your smile
I'm blessed to share it for a while
I still believe with all my might
there's magic in a Christmas night
but oh, how lucky, one would be
to wake and find you....
           'neath his tree....
