So this is Christmas

And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over over
If you want it
War is over
Now...

Have a wonderful holiday full of love, cheer and goodwill. And may you and the world know a 2006 that is filled with Peace.

8. Honey, you've just posted the only Xmas song
that ever made me cry. I don't care for the usual stuff, but that song tears me out of the frame.


Loving you & wishing you peace,
Steffi

10. That song has a dual effect on me
It makes me cry, and fills me with hopeful joy at the same time.


Hugs and Metta. :hug:

12. The tone of it is so WISTFUL to me-
it's one of the most beautiful songs ever written. I always loved it, but I never knew what the final lyrics were til now, even though John & Yoko had that "War is Over if You Want it" ad out. I had no idea they were incorporated into the song until now. It's too much.

Thank you, my friend.

Hugs & Metta back-:hug: :hug: :hug:

9. Happy Holidays to you too.
My neighbor shot some fireworks off. I enjoyed them, but when I tried to bring Yogi to the window to look out, one of those booming ones went off. I know nothing about fireworks, but I like watching them. Yogi freaked for about 2 hours. After some catnip and his Christmas present, he started to calm down some. I wish my cats liked fireworks too.

11. Poor kitty
Edited on Sun Dec-25-05 04:13 AM by BuffyTheFundieSlayer
Most cats don't like booming noises. My roomies old cat Boots used to hide in the basement any time fireworks or thunderstorms occured. Her current one doesn't seem to mind storms but freaks whenever the vacuum is running. Oddly enough the bird loves the vacuum so much that if you just take it out of the closet he starts getting excited. :crazy:

You and Yogi have a great Christmas. Hugs and Metta. :grouphug:
