But now there's vaccine!! It’s true that this year has had sadness a plenty,We’ll never forget the year 2020. And just ‘round the corner - The holiday season,But why be merry? Is there even a reason? To decorate the house and put up the tree,When no one will see it, just you & me. But outside my window the snow gently falls,And I think to myself, let’s deck all the halls! So, gather the ribbon, the garland and bows,Play those old carols, for happiness grows. Christmas ain’t cancelled and neither is hope.If we lean on each other, I know we can cope. Merry Christmas to all and be of good cheer.The times that are normal, they soon will be here.</blockquote>
