Time to put away the decorations.Room by room we go back to normal decorations.

We started at Church after Church then a little at home.

But there are things of Christmas I won’t pack away. The giving spirit, the fun and laughter, the togetherness and joy.

The memories of Christmas blend together like a breeze of comfort.

Though the Christmas trees are put away the images of beauty and peace still remains.

Time for the Christwear to be packed away though snow men and polar bears are given a reprieve.

Christmas pins packed away but once again the snowmen are still playing.

Music is still there though the lyrics and melody have changed.

My polar bears are still out on the fireplace and stuffed animals on the window seat.

Keep Christmas with you all through the year when Christmas is over save some Christmas cheer These special moments hold them very dear and keep Christmas with you all through the year. (Christmas Eve on Sesame Street)
