CHILD IN YOU AT CHRISTMAS is a gentle little lyrics written after a lovely little bird flew into our window glass today, while I was resting all day - feelin' all sorry for myself, since I was havin' a reaction to my flu shot and all...and Den was so kind and the bird was badly stunned and lived...it made me think about the holidays comin' up...how we cry from a place in us that's still 'a child'...and how that relates to Christmas...and this bird...and vulnerable times...for all of us....

CHILD IN YOU AT CHRISTMAS

CHORUS

Once Christmas was a child thing
A little mouse stirring in the the house thing
Merry Christmas little child in you
And to me, too, child, child in you
_____________

A bird flew at our window - we thought it died -
I cried hard: my heart is always flyin' careless
Into windows too - we held on and cried together:
I am always loving, little child in me, the
little child who's still in you....
____________

CHORUS
____________

Everywhere there's life all fallin' into glass -
And hearts are bleedin' ....still,
There is this thought of Christmas: hope and all -
Among some countries on this old earth -
And birds flyin' live and free....
______________

CHORUS
______________

There are lives that never cry for little birds
Or kids at Christmas - hearts
All breaking...I sure wish that little bird, tho,
Didn't fly into our window - hit the glass -
But then, we saw: it flew away -

It flew and sang... for Christmas day....
