CHRISTMAS

My feelings on Christmas

THE GENTLY FALLING SNOW ON A WINTRY CHRISTMAS EVE
CHRISTMAS CAROLS AND AROMA OF ROASTED CHESTNUTS FILL THE AIR
IT’S THE TIME OF THE YEAR THAT IS ALWAYS A WELCOME REPRIEVE
IT IS INDEED A TIME TO BE HAPPY AND A TIME TO SHARE
THE TWINKLING OF THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS ON A BUSY STREET
THE LAUGHTER AND JOY OF PEOPLE RUSHING AROUND
THE HO HO HO OF SANTA CLAUSE WITH PRESENTS AT HIS FEET
THE JINGLING OF BELLS IS A FAMILIAR XMAS SOUND
A TIME WHEN FEARS, WORRIES, SADNESS SHOULD BE NAUGHT
XMAS IS A TIME TO REFLECT ON A YEAR GONE BY
A TIME WHEN THE LESS FORTUNATE ARE GIVEN A THOUGHT
A TIME TO INTROSPECT AND PUT RIGHT ALL YOUR WRONG
IT IS TIME WHEN IT IS ONLY WITH JOY THAT YOU CRY
A TIME WHEN WE FORGIVE AND FORGET PROBLEMS WITH THOSE WHO ARE DEAR
A TIME TO FILL YOUR HEART AND SOUL WITH A JOYFUL SONG
A TIME TO THINK OF THOSE WHO ARE NO LONGER HERE
CHRISTMAS DAY, WHEN OUR DEAR LORD WAS GIVEN BIRTH
HE CAME TO BEAR OUR SINFUL LOAD ON A HUGE CROSS
HE WALKED WITHOUT RESPITE ACROSS THIS EARTH
TO FORGET THIS SELFLESS SACRIFICE IS INDEED A GREAT LOSS
