Everything Will be OK

Wrapping and unwrapping of earthly gifts
Some people fleeing it all
Claiming that to give a material gift is offensive to the spirit
Mean spirited capitalists
Let me go seek refuge in silence and baby jesus; only not born now but in the Spring
Paper and ribbons and bows and way too many instruction booklets
Still there is laughter in my house and
When I step out onto my porch and view the night sky
With the half moon shining down
A northeasterly wind scuttling clouds in the face of many stars
There are smiles all around and I think...
It's really ok..everything will be ok.
