You need to listen
to pay attention and understand
I have no words to speak to you
for I am future and words are not yet spoken
My siblings have shown you
joy in the past, promise in the present
what you were, how it stands today
But there is one lesson left
the certain end of the road you travel

a picture bleak, but plain
Open your eyes, Ebenezer
The future is still unmade
Only you can choose your destination
As Christmas morning dawns
Christmas bells ring for second chances
Choose wisely.
