The Way Christmas Is

How come we always find each other?

Is there a magic in December?

And what’s this feeling I feel inside?

I can tell you feel the same thro your eyes.

That’s just the way Christmas is.

You can’t explain it and I won’t pretend.

I guess it’s just the way the season is

Christmas is magic; it’s all we comprehend.

How come there’s a vibe when we connect?

Like something kicks in genuine and perfect

Is it that nameless emotion fired up?

Making words unnecessary and syncing thoughts?

How come I have you in my radar?

Yet we ain’t met, ain’t e’en together?

I don’t fight it and you’re yielded too.

Time taught us to flow with the attitude.

The Reason is Right

To give a gift that keeps on giving,

I make a move to keep my pen bleeding.

Until words slide off the page right thro the brain,

As your feelings bind and turn pain into gain.

And the season is ripe.

And the reason is right

To attack you with love this one mo’ time,

And drown your fears in joys of yuletide.

To translate a scene from my heart to paper,

I grope for words that’d flow much deeper.

That long after the paragraph is read,

The vibes will keep your feet sure on the ledge.
