Inside my heart
This time of year
While all the
Televisions
Newspapers
And billboards
Count the shopping days
For me
It appears
To me that
I'm the only one
Who doesn't see
The fine and natural
Attraction to what seems
Part race
Part obstacle course
I believe
Long ago I leaned that we
Celebrate this season
Anniversary of the birth
Of someone named Jesus
Through the years
How my perception of it all
Has gone awry
When so much
Manufactured hype
And pressurized requirements
Make it all seem a lie
How I wish
Since it's the
Time of year that
Dreams can come alive
That you and I
See one November when
Without the retail forecasting
Some peace on earth
Goodwill to all arrives
CHEER
