Merry Christmas

Just one last time for 2007

I want to wish you all.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

AND A

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house
Not a computer was stirring
Not a keyboard or mouse.

Not even a Blogger
Was blogging, no sound
For they all knew that Santa
Was making his rounds

No book worms or writers
This night pounded the keys
They had shut down their hard drives
And got down on their knees.

To give thanks to the Lord
For the moon stars and sun
On that long distant day
When he gave us his Son.

So peace reigned the earth
As the computers shut down
And each gem of silence
Spread through the town.

In the wee hours of morning
As people stirred, then awoke
They exchanged all their gifts
And not a harsh word was spoke
