Happy Holidays from Moultrie County Health Dept.

“I’m Wishing at this Christmas Time”

By Edgar Guest
I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me;
I'd like to be the help that you've been always glad to be;
I'd like to mean as much to you each minute of the day
As you have meant, old friend of mine, to me along the way.

I'd like to do the big things and the splendid things for you,
To brush the gray out of your skies and leave them only blue;
I'd like to say the kindly things that I so oft have heard,
And feel that I could rouse your soul the way that mine you've stirred.

I'd like to give back the joy that you have given me,
Yet that were wishing you a need I hope will never be;
I'd like to make you feel as rich as I who travel on,
Undaunted in the darkest hours with you to lean upon.

I'm wishing at this Christmas time that I could but repay
A portion of the gladness that you've strewn along the way;
And could I have one wish this year, this only would it be:
I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me.

Happy Holidays! The Moultrie County Health Department staff wishes you peace in your heart, joy in your home, and the blessing of friendship throughout the holidays and beyond. Thank you for your friendship and the opportunity to serve you.
