While most people think of Dr. Seuss’s The Grinch at Christmas, his poem A Prayer for a Child is very special to me, particularly at this time of year. I think Peace on Earth is always a worthwhile thing to pray for, don’t you?
From here on earth,
From my small place
I ask of You
Way out in space:
Please tell all men
In every land
What You and I
Both understand . . .
Please tell all men
That Peace is Good.
That’s all
That need be understood
In every world
In Your great sky.
(We understand.
Both You and I.)
Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!!
