One time a year there is a marvelous night…
when enchantment and wonder park and take flight.
Each home fills with joy on this grand holiday…
with hearts growing warm in a magical way.
The rooms are all covered with garlands and wreaths.
The mantle is ready, with stockings beneath.
Lights twinkle and glow and bells brightly chime.
The moment's arrived! It's here! Christmas time.

Three precious gifts lie under this tree...
what secrets they hold?
Let's look, and we'll see.
The first tells a story for us all to hear…
about laugher and family and those we hold dear.
We love Christmas so much we want it to stay…
but what if we wished it was here everyday?

So, Christmas was meant to last just one day…
and maybe it's simply better that way.
It's a time to be treasured. It can't always be here…
but the feeling it gives us can last the whole year.

Now, this gift holds a story both wondrous and rare…
about a father and a son and the love that they share.
This Christmas, they'll learn before the night's through…
if we care for each other our dreams can come true.

So, Christmas is found In the way that we live…
not what we receive, but what we can give.

Now that last present here may seem rather small…
not fancy or flashy, or special at all.
But this gift can be given by the rich or the poor.
It's a gift of the heart, and it means so much more.

A gift from the heart is cherished and true.
A present is best…
when love's given too.

So, in the end, it's love that's the reason…
that Christmas is more that a gift-giving season.
It's a time with our loved ones to show that we care…
when families and neighbors come together to share.
So, this Christmas season, let us all do out parts…
to keep Christmas spirit alive in our hearts.





and never forget:

"Christmas isn't about candy canes, holly or lights all aglow..
It's about the hearts that we touch and the care that we show."

A Soldier's Silent Night - by Lance Corporal James M. Schmidt

'Twas the night before Christmas, he lived all alone,
in a one bedroom house made of plaster and stone.
I had come down the chimney with presents to give,
and to see just who in this home did live.
I looked all about, a strange sight I did see,
no tinsel, no presents, net even a tree.
No stocking by mantle, just boots filled with sand,
on the wall hung pictures of far distant lands.
With medals and badges, awards of all kinds,
a sober thought came through my mind.
For this house was different, it was dark and dreary,
I found the home of a soldier, once I could see clearly.
The soldier lay sleeping, silent, alone,
curled up on the floor in this one bedroom home.
The face was so gentle, the room in such disorder,
not how I pictured a United States Soldier.
Was this the hero of whom I'd just read?
Curled up on a poncho, the floor for a bed?
I realized the families that I saw this night,
owed their lives to these soldiers who were willing to fight.
Soon round the world, the children would play,
and grownups would celebrate a bright Christmas day.
They all enjoyed freedom each month of the year,
because of the soldiers, like the one lying here.
I couldn't help wonder how many lay alone,
on a cold Christmas Eve in a land far from home.
The very thought brought a tear to my eye,
I dropped to my knees and started to cry.
The soldier awakened and I heard a rough voice,
"Santa don't cry, this life is my choice;
I fight for freedom, I don't ask for more,
my life is my God, my Country, My Corps."
The soldier rolled over and drifted to sleep,
I couldn't control it, I continued to weep.
I kept watch for hours, so silent and still
and we both shivered from the cold night's chill.
I didn't want to leave on that cold, dark night,
this guardian of honor so willing to fight.
The the soldier rolled over, with a voice soft and pure,
whispered, "carry on Santa, it's Christmas day, all is secure."
One look at my watch and I knew he was right.
Merry Christmas my friend, and to all a good night.

Bestimmt.
Aber Du kannst Sissi auf Youtube ansehen. Ein findiger Mensch hat dort alle Sissifilme in kleinen 10-Minuten-Happen eingestellt. Einfach Playlists anlegen und dann kannst Du das hintereinanderweg auf Youtube anschauen. Mache ich ganz bestimmt dieser Tage.

"Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel" gibt's dort auch.
