White Christmas
Bright snow sparkles
Blanketing sorrow
Bringing light
Signaling hope
Spreading peace
Generating joy
An unexpected ending
To a year fraught with woe
A winter-wrapped wish for a better world
Blanketing sorrow
Bringing light
Signaling hope
Spreading peace
Generating joy
An unexpected ending
To a year fraught with woe
A winter-wrapped wish for a better world
