 The alarm awakens me from a
 dream forgotten.  I lay
 reflecting of what I will do
 this day.   Then I recall,
 today is a special day.  Today
 is a day of love and deep
 feelings.  I sit sipping my
 coffee, watching the flakes
 float down outside.  My breath
 fogs the window as the steam
 from my mug rises.  I smile
 and regard the years gone
 past.  Of the times spent with
 family and friends.  The
 children all laughs and giggles,
 as they shake the
 gifts under the tree.  Oh the
 tree, such a lovely creature.
 We always cut our own, taking
 great care to choose just the
 right one.  The smell fills
 the house as we place the
 lights and decorations upon
 it.  The glimmer and glisten,
 the intuition and incense.  It
 all fits so well together.  I
 recall back to when I was
 young.  The night before
 christmas, unable to sleep.
 Thinking of Santa and the gifts
 he would bring. The
 excitement, the anticipation,
 the suspense.  I smile as I
 remember the feeling of warmth
 come over me.  The embrace of
 magic in the air.  The
 kindness of others.  Yet I
 feel sorry for those who do
 not understand.  The people
 who have never had the peace
 and love.  I pray for them to
 believe in love.  I send a
 piece of myself to everyone.
 I am not rich in money but I
 have plenty of love to share with
 all.  This story poem is
 a part of me I give to you.
 Please send it to those who
 need it.  Thank you and have a
 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Actually, chocolate-covered gummi bears are yummy!  I used to eat them all the

JT was stuck in South Texas buried in textbooks and notes in preparation
