My Christmas Wish

As Christmas approaches I always think back to a poem I wrote in 2000 for a local telethon for St. Vincent de Paul. It is still true today.

One Gift

If you could have one gift for Christmas
Tell me what would it be, someone asked.
Seriously pondering the question for awhile,
The gift I choose wouldn't be under the tree.

What I really want for Christmas
I told the person who had asked me
Is the most precious treasured gift of all,
LOVE, pure and simple and completely free.
