Four candles shine bright,
with their beautiful light.
Foggy cold weather outside,
cosy warmth inside.

For some time now Advent,
time in tradition spent.
May there be some free time,
to be a candle to shine.

To bring peace and joy,
with a present or a toy.
With a kind phrase or smile,
or listening for a while

Being greatful for those in duty,
to allow us to enjoy Christmas beauty,
emergency service, supermarket employee,
do probably not celebrate under a christmas tree.

I use this time to be humble again,
to imagine what people can,
if they are satisfied and kind,
what peace might unwind.

No matter if we have family celebration,
or we invent our own tradition variation,
or being completely alone at all,
we should esteem the inner call,

that we have the luxury in these days,
to calm down in our prefered ways,
to find self love and relaxation,
in whatever variation.

From that, peace will come to the heart,
and after Christmas a New Year’s start,
strengthend, ready for a future to come,
and hazzles of the old year gone.

Find peace in these days,
in your prfered ways.
Be a candle burning for peace,
relax and bring your mind to ease.
