GHOSTS OF CHRISTMAS`S PAST

Come ye oh ghosts of Christmas`s past
no fear for me your picture`s cast
Nay! Spectre of misery, do not set the scene
of Christmas`s past displaying a haunting dream

Thou dreams of death and of saddened times
no death knell I hear, only beauteous chimes
I thwart your erstwhile doom with no regret
Christmas cheer this year I will reap beget

To many of thee ghosts have I let encumber
Happy times this season I will remember
I see family gathered round the Christmas pine
the giving of gifts, pleasure on faces divine

A hearty repast a toast, to peace and love
Thankful for our lot, to gracious lord above
So hearby I oust thee sad ghosts, my mind let in
for a new chapter of Christmas`s to begin

Season`s greetings to all I write, in mine ink
No ghosts of sad Christmas`s past I hope thee.. not think
