It's that season,
Where at each greeting,
And each leaving,
We utter those words,
That send us beaming.
***
When you see your family,
Give a hug and say it with feeling,
Merry Christmas to you,
It's been a while,
Since we have seen you.
***
When you meet your friends,
Send them off with cheer,
Say Merry Christmas,
And let them know,
You'll see them next year.
***
It is the season,
To spend with each other,
The family you chose,
The friends you make,
Those special to you.
