I bring you a rose,
Dancing in the snow,
As it did one Christmas
Morning long ago.
It sprang through the ice,
The legend goes on to say,
As sweet as the baby, it arrived,
Early on Christmas day.
Not only for the Christmas season,
Do I wish you joy, peace and love,
Not only for this season,
Do I wish you cheer,
And gentle white doves.
May each day fill your heart with
Voices of heavenly choirs,
May each day fulfill your dreams and
Your fondest desires.
May peace fill your days and nights
The whole year through.
These, my friend, are my wishes
For you.
Dorothy (Alves) Holmes
