A very merry Christmas
To all our family and friends
Good wishes for the new year
And for happiness that never ends
For some, it's just another day
For others, an extravagant affair
A time for faith and contemplation
Small gatherings or big celebration
A time to give and share
We send our Christmas greetings
To our loved ones, far and near
We'll raise a glass for those we've lost
To the people who can't be here
Yuletide blessings are wished for you
Good tidings and greetings of the season
Old family traditions flowing
Or new ones budding and growing
A day of connection and cohesion
Blessed Yuletide, happy Wednesday
Merry Christmas, blessed be
All the best to all of you
From my menfolk and me

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."
