A card at Christmas
Is like a visitation
When people cannot come
An email or a Whatsapp
Will get the same job done
It’s the thought of you at Christmas
Always in my mind
And in my heart I venture
I always found you kind
And Christmas time
The feast of love
Requires we don’t forget
The people who mean most to us
The people we have met
Along life’s rocky journey
Though we have long since lost
The sight of you in every day
We love you with this post
Like Mary and Elizabeth
Mothers now to be
One journeyed to the other
To be her company
And both rejoiced in meeting
And did each other good
That’s why I send this greeting
Because I know I should
