May the day that lies before us
Be full of moments meant to nourish
Both our soul and hearts with love
Yet prompt us not to hold above
The needs of others, selfish wants
Temper tendency to flaunt
It matters not what things we own
Keep focus clear and desires known
So that we revel in the presence
Of what distills down to its essence
When kin co-mingle, friends will gather
Enjoying company of others
What blessings this time of the year
Can bring to those both far and near
If we can set aside resentments
Instead rest easy in contentment
As world presents itself sublime
And grants us calmness in good time…
