[Quote No.19191] Need Area: Friends > General "[Poem:]
'At Christmas'
A man is at his finest towards the finish of the year;
He is almost what he should be when the Christmas season's here;
Then he's thinking more of others than he's thought the months before,
And the laughter of his children is a joy worth toiling for.
He is less a selfish creature than at any other time;
When the Christmas spirit rules him he comes close to the sublime...

Merely of merchant's trafficking,
Of tinsel, bell and holly wreath,
And surface pleasure, but beneath,
The childish glamour, let us find,
Nourishment for soul and mind.
Let us follow kinder ways,
Through our teeming human maze,
And help the age of peace to come,
From a Dreamer's martyrdom." - Madeline Morse Author's Info on Wikipedia - Author on ebay - Author on Amazon - More Quotes by this Author Start Searching Amazon for Gifts Send as Free eCard with optional Google Image |
